Found an ELW close to an F8 star

I just came across an ELW world that is only 532Ls out from the F8 primary. I didn't think they would get that close to an F class star. A G class, sure! But, not an F class!

F8's at the cool end, it won't that far away from a hot G temperature wise so there's going to be a big overlap in the Goldilocks zone.

^---This. Also bear in mind that this is a hot ELW, about 42°C (That's 107°F for the yanks ;))

It also has very little in the atmosphere to warm it up - a bit more water or some carbon dioxide and it'd pass the ELW max temperature bound...

Also fairly light and small, and low atmospheric pressure, with some water (greenhouse gas) thrown in for good measure. A bit more of any of those, or a bit closer, and it wouldn't be Earth-like anymore. It must be fate.
Edit: oops, didn't notice that MattG just posted the exact same thing.
