Yet, the engine really could not cool down that quickly for it to really be a cold start.

Is it Friday yet?

But is it really temperature being dealt with here? I rather thought that "cold start" was just an expression meaning starting the engines after they had been completely shut down...

The flaws we find most objectionable in others are often those we recognize in ourselves.

Didn't it have something to do with intermix formulas? Perhaps Kirk's ship really went completely blank, and lost all settings and calibration data. Similar to how my car cant run stationary when the battery has been dead. I have to run the engine for 15 minutes to re-calibrate the onboard computer thingy. If Spock was my science officer, he'd probably program the computer manually.
