Another way to look at. Let's assume you take it in for the oil change and drop it off the night before. Would that shop send it out for a 25 mile trip and then do the work on it?
The shop wouldn't care, it's not their rig.
It's not that they wouldn't care, it is simply a fact of life. Not everyone does their own oil changes. For all those millions/month that drop their vehicle off for an oil change I haven't heard one class action suit against cold oil changes.
Oil is so much better as are the filters. What was true 50 years ago may not be the case anymore.
