And as a side note, the ZDDP is burnished into the metal surfaces
during engine operation and provides a sacrificial layer for startups.
You will notice its still in modern oils, just not enough to keep high
load areas like our old engine lifter and cam faces protected, but
works great for the newer roller cams and roller rocker designs.

 I agree. Today's oils leave a nice film behind, and it only takes
less than a couple of seconds before oil is gushing through
everything.

Methinks you're a bit paranoid.

I'm totally opposed to using an electric fuel pump to enable a quick start
after a long park spell.  It makes no sense to start on dry bearings and I
find that the extended cranking time required to fill dry carburetors is
just a little after the oil pressure comes up.  Before that you don't want
it to start!
