In rolling starts a lot of stupid things happen, but everyone shares one thing in common...they're moving.
In standing starts, a lot of other stupid things happen, but some may not be moving when encoutered.
In both situations, faster cars, for one reason or another, may be placed at the back of the grid making T1 rather frightening.
If I'm in my ITC car, revving the engine, dumping the clutch, and bogging down way below the torque curve when those sticky Hoosiers hook up from a standing start, and an ITS car a few rows back that didn't make the one minute warning to the grid is running up my backside...someone could become upset.
Same thing could happen in a rolling start, but both of us stand a better chance of not meeting in a really disappointing fashion.
I'll admit, it would be fun, but so is skydiving. Plus, my drive train is fragile enough. :119:
