Id imagine its mostly a result of the charge cooling, at e85 you have plenty of octane to work with. Its the frustrating thing about e85, it does a great job of in cylinder cooling, but it cant do squat for CATs, so in the Summer your DME will still want to pull out timing even if the conditions in cylinder are great. So meth becomes the bandaid there.
