What oil temp is considered warmed up?

Themostatic Plates aren't 100%, there's always flow. They're 100% open at their specified temp, but they're never 0%.

Really................? Go to your local parts store and purchase one and take it home and put it in a pan of water. Put a candy Thermometer in with it and turn on the heat. Watch what happens when you play with the amount of heat. I believe you'll be surprised...............!
