Opening T&P can cause air pocket to be expelled vs being established
If you depressurize the water system and open the pressure relief valve, it will also re-establish the air pocket.
YES.........
That is How you can re-establish a lost air pocket
Opening T&P with NO pressure/flow
Opening it WITH water turned on can displace the air pocket because the water will churn inside the WH Tank and carry the air out thru T&P vs flowing naturally thru hot out dip tube to an open faucet
