I call it familiarity. Use something for a while and you get comfortable with its quirks.

I also don't buy that "glazing" your pot hocus pocus. After you've been benching for a bit, you've equilibrated your pot temps with the insulation and hardware around it. Means there is less of a temp sink that absorbs changes and your pot becomes more "responsive". Reaching that point often coincides with having reached a coldbug and needing to torch. Thus the association (in my mind).

But hey, I'm not one to bash established dogma and superstition. I like benching with an anvil nearby. Whatever makes the stars align in your bench session is good.
Hahaha, thx Patch, u crack me up man.
