This discussion reminds me of another principle I have been told about engines, though probably more important with turbochargers: Always allow your engine to cool down at lower load/rpms before shutting it down. A hot engine being shut down immediately without a good cool down is probably more thermal stress than a cold start and traps oil where it may break down more or coke. (I am more familiar with aircraft though)
