Most data centers use evaporative cooling, not closed circuit water cooling.

Do they really? What the fuck. What happened to proper heat pump AC systems?

Simple, they are more expensive per what cooled than evaporative cooling. Especially when a lot of data centers under report the amount of water they are using.
