Wouldn't you also expect emissions to be higher immediately upon start
up than they are once the engine has run for a bit?

Of course, that term is a bit of a misnomer. Idling? Really?
Let's see what it is still doing while 'idling':
Recharging the battery
Running the AC, and/or the heat
Running the lights
Running the interior accessories, seat heaters, etc.
Every thing but driving the wheels. Idle, my ass.
