That is coming out of the converter, which is as hot as is going to get. If the fluid is getting hot enough to burn the oil that is the only place you can find out. However I would agree that the fluid temp in the pan is interesting and that would tell you the coolest the oil is at the time and if it is too hat and could damage transmission parts. I have done it both ways.
