You actually don't want to wait for your engine to warm up beforehand unless you are going to immediately punch it or go on the highway. Your engine warms up multiple times faster under a light load than it does idling.

Sure, but you have to be aware that it's still cold and it affects how you drive. It affects how the car feels. Is it a huge deal? Nope, not by itself. But it's just another one of those anachronistic things you do today that you will chuckle about in the future.
