Does anyone know if this could have caused substantial accelerated degredation of the battery?
From the Googling I did, it sounds like probably not. But Apple themselves says "It’s especially important to avoid exposing your device to ambient temperatures higher than 95° F (35° C), which can permanently damage battery capacity."
One guy on Reddit posted a temperature reading of his phone at 42 C. There are probably examples of it getting even hotter.

The heat source here is the SoC and it’s able to dissipate into the air. Which is key because you have both the device heat and ambient heat contributing. So you’re likely totally fine unless you were keeping the phone at high temps in a hot place for an extended period of time
