You do realize your ‘supporting’ document (the pdf 115925.pdf) indicates the more stop start is used the worse it gets. A limit of 10 per day for parity and anything more is detrimental. Although as any can conclude without a required study, the longer it’s off the less it uses. A maximum of 10...

“Limit engine start cycles to approximately 10 total cycles per day, on average. Occasionally
