Someone else in this thread who worked on Wine said there was no evidence for such a thing since the faster launch times also occurred in Wine. What forensics did you use to determine this?

I don't believe the context of the Wine related comment was Win 3.1. OpenOffice wasn't around to compare launch times. Internet Explorer was around, a bit, but was competing with Netscape, not Mozilla.
