It makes sense to say “the hottest year on record” if “practically every year is the hottest on record now” and you’re talking about the most recent year.
Does it make more or less sense than “Another year of record breaking heat”?
“Hottest year on record” is like a child stopping on each step of a staircase saying, “I’ve never been this high!” It’s correct, but doesn’t mean much in context, and gets old real quick.
