What I said was its ops normal in the 777 or A330 to carryout a cross bleed start during pushback because you don't need more than idle thrust to achieve required minimum duct pressure for a successful start of the other Engine.

Definitely NOT true on the A330. Often you need to increase thrust above idle to keep the pressure sufficient. Especially in hot and/or high conditions.
