It seems to me you have a variable definition for "flooded".
To me flooded means theres more gas available than can be handled by
the spark plug. A wet spark plug produces considerably less spark
than a dry one so theres no starting.
It seems you start by using "flooded" to mean "primed" but then
change to flooded when you talk about holding full throttle to clear
the extra fuel...
My Husky has a primer bulb that I only use if the saw has been
sitting a few weeks or more. If its been running recently I flip the
choke and it'll start pretty easy.

I mean too rich to run. I don't generally check to see if the spark
plug is wet.
With the choke out, it starts, and runs and dies before I can get to
the choke to shove it in. TO me that is more flooded than primed.
to me primed means there is adequate gasoline to the carb. But I
hate gassers, so I really don't care how you want to define the
terms. Gimme a Diesel!
