Things generally become less spicy as they sit in the fridge so that checks out. Also Kenji (my muse) made a video recently where he talked about how the idea that things like stew or chili taste better the next day is a myth. The reason people think that is because when you eat it the day of, you generally have been smelling it for a while so your nose has adapted to it and you don't get the taste as strong. If you eat it the next day you get the fill olfactory experience.
