A few minutes at 10.000ft Potential hypoxia is unlikely.
Again: in air it must be "cabin altitude warning". There is no other meaning.
If there is a fault in the AIR/GRD you can easyly find out a incorrectly T/O Config Warning by retarding the throttle (the Helios Crew did this...)

I hope you know the difference between a "
intermittent horn" and a "
continuous horn"
The second part I agree too ...
