By that definition, the purpose of a computer is to get hot. It of course does get hot, but a purpose is more than simply a side-effect.

Purpose, according to Cambridge Dictionary, is "why you do something or why something exist". A side-effect wouldn't pose any cause, therefore it's NOT its purpose.
