For the argument about carbone brakes operation when cold, yes at low speed and low thrust setting it will function but higher speed and higher thrust settings while cold....will be interesting to say the least.
What are you on about???? Do you care to explain???

COLD carbon brakes will stop the aircraft at V1 PLUS 2 seconds at max take-off mass. Its called an RTO. There is NO minimum brake temp for take off.
