The MM says to torque a new spark plug (with heat compound) into a cold engine. That's clear, and it's easy during maintenance downtime, but what about in the field where you're troubleshooting rough running engine, and probably putting the same spark plug right back where it came from a minute ago, with the same washer, and probably still warm/hot? What are the realistic precautions needed in this scenario?
