Well of course but what are you showing me?

Which are we to ‘assume’ is most accurate?

Lazy programming, i.e. 1 min(s)

A numerical readout as opposed to a visual range progress indicator.

The inlet air temp matches the ambient temp (which proposes the possibility of displaying numbers below 140). granted different sensors however due to ‘lazy programming’ it seems the cylinder head temperature value is not updated until the ‘floor’ is exceeded. Should be fairly easy to insert the ‘<‘ prior to the value for the cht when the floor has not been reached.
