Min Inlet Temp - what happens if not reached?

Warning: I'm non-professional; not crew, not engineer - just guest here, thanks.

I'm back, not to bang-on about fuel stratification, but to ask a question of those who know.

An article on smartcockpit, written by an Airbus employee, on Low Fuel Temperatures has a table listing the Minimum Inlet Temperatures for engines from various manufacturers. RR has temp of 3C (This figure seems generalised for RR).

The question, for those that really do know the answer, is what happens next if the fuel heat exchange systems cannot raise the fuel temperature to, or above, 3C?

Thanks in advance.

Regards, Tanimbar
