The superconducting electrode can remove only femtowatts of power, so it is not capable of cooling any but the tiniest of conductors, and then only slightly.
Femtowatt sensitivity is achieved with the photodiode and feedback resistor network on the cold plate.
In this future world, individual processors will cost millicents and processor operations will consume femtowatts.
