There is no reason to leave Liveview running while imaging but some people might do it anyway and this would generate excess heat and battery drain, you're obviously not one of them so you don't need to worry
Writing images to the card would generate a bit of heat if you were taking shots quickly and it was constantly writing but writing an image every 30/60/90 seconds isn't going to do anything negative IMO.
In terms of heat, using Liveview on the camera and focusing using BYE would be the same, as the mirror is up and the camera is reading and processing image data, but I wouldn't worry too much as 20 seconds to focus is negligible compared to a night of imaging.
