Boeing's views

This is what Boeing often recommends:

"Because of additional operational procedural requirements and crew workload, taxiing out for flight with an engine shutdown is not recommended. High bypass engines require warm up prior to applying takeoff thrust and cool down prior to shutting down. If the engine has been shutdown for several hours, it is desirable to operate at as low a thrust setting as practical for several minutes prior to takeoff."
