Several years of experience as a researcher, consultant or program administrator may be required.

Mostly because your mouths "wet", a ton of energy is required to heat or cool, water/saliva acts as thermal sink any hot soup or cold popsicles transfer energy only changes a few degrees and absorbs heat readily when changing state (ice/steam). If your mouth or tongue/gum skin were real dry it would be burned or freeze immediately instead. People with cavities, weak enamel, gum disease or Stomatitis are VERY hypersensitive to cold and heat in mouth is painful to them.

Conversely if you ran your hand under hot or cold water before touching something you'd be fine for a bit, is why wet newspaper is used for glassblowing, etc https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=eGqln2ZvTMQ

same for mopeds and motorcycles etc. The engine and transmission are connected in gear(drive) when two are linked and it's a matter of whether enough horsepower is being generated to move based on current RPM, if not enough or on a hill or carrying load all require more engine torque to get moving initially
