There's more light captured, so there should be less noise, but I can't get my head round the mechanism, unless it the extra data playing a role in NR.

Very strait forward: 4 times more light means sqrt(4) = 2 times better S/N ratio.

And yes, there is no need to demosaic data. So, the colour resolution benefits the most.
