Wouldn't less power loss not just mean lower power consumption, but the ability to run it at higher speeds while keeping the same cooling technology we current have?

Even faster. That is to say, even faster than a semiconductor CPU that didn't generate any heat whatsoever (or was cooled with liquid helium).

Assuming of course it is possible to shrink the superconductor circuits down to the same size of the semiconductor counterpart.
