Lol wow I guess years of experience working with engines and cars , not to mention schooling and the fact that I work at a dealership must mean o give bad advise.
The car runs rich at start up untill

O2 reaches 600 degrees (it has a internal heating circuit to help)
Coolant temp reaches a certain voltage output.
Pre set time must pass

Those 3 things are what usually run open or closed loop.

Drive it as soon as its started?
Clearly you guys don't understand the dynamics of the cylinder walls.
When cold they are a bit oval shape , when fully warm they become much more round.
The engine had no load before you put it in gear. If you drive it right after starting you risk scoring the walls because of the engine load and engine not fully warm.

But do as you will . It's your car .
