I would swuggest a difference between relight and restart

I believe

Relight is a fadec controlled fuction activated within seconds without pilot interception.

Restart is where the engine has spooled down without enough presurization on its own to support a relight

The latter requires configuring the air entering the engine to support ignition (aircraft speed and altitude pressure)

For restart capabilities you can attempt any attempts you care, but do expect hung starts or hot starts and no sucessful acceleration to power until you achieve the published restart envelop
