Bought a new light fixture for my laundry room this weekend.

In the instructions it says max 60w (incandescent) and max 13w (cfl). Which is the equivalent CFL bulb in roughterms of lumen output.

My question is, why couldn't/shouldn't I put a higher wattage CFL bulb in there for more light? The concern is primarily heat, right?
