Correct. And I believe temps outside of the limitations trigger an ECAM when then "T/O config test is pushed."

I think the A380 exceeded the Chandrasekhar limit.

While neither of these time periods can be found in chapter two, it is my opinion that they are still limitations, and I treat them as such whenever practical.
Dude, just read the FCOM, it's not at all vague. Your opinion isn't required. Cooldown is NOT a limitation, even an unwritten one. If you arrive at the gate and 3 minutes haven't passed, you can shut them down on the ceo. You do have to wait 3 minutes for OET. It is a mandatory cooldown for the neo, even after a short taxi to the gate. None of those are limitations though, which has a specific definition, requiring strict observation and a logbook entry for exceedence. They ARE good operating practice, and you can be sure it'll be talking point if you bust them in training or during a check.

Also stop telling people not to reapply.
You could cost someone a job.
It's not an aircraft limitation. But, which SOP specifically, allows you to violate prescribed SOP (outside of an emergency)?

I'll look it up here in a bit. But I'm guessing it is a "should or may" vs Will or must.

That would be a deciding factor in if it must be followed.

Example: Method 2 for Airbus guys states, the PF should put in the points Associated with M2. Since it says “should” you don’t have to do it. It’s only a recommendation.

Just like cleaning your seat.

Should, will, may, must.
Some things you will do. Others you should do but may not have to.

How’s it written??

I see a lot of PHL, NYC and CLT commuters around Logan, at least there’s a lot of frequency on those commutes.
In the last few aa classes 737 boston has occasionally been offered right out of training, even if it was only 1-2 slots.

Exactly, oil temp ecam can’t be present for takeoff obviously. No other warm up temp limit. Cool down is also recommended. On the NEO it is required.

It says we must "ensure" that you have a "minimum" of 2/5 mins.

With as many fume events as JB has (59 in March), and the inherently high oil pressure of the bus, I don’t know why anyone would not adequately warm up the oil/motor before pushing the throttles up. Probably the same type of person who wouldn’t write up dirty socks smell or dismisses it as not a big deal.
