There are a lot of temperature related things to known in all sorts of baking. Most cake-like recipes, especially in commercial batches don't care, but just about any dough recipe, especially leavened, cares a lot about temperature of every ingredient. It was a lot of trial and error especially when the weather changes and temperature gradients in the shop.
Lots of baking recipes ask for room-temperature eggs, and it isn't just fussiness.
Cold eggs can firm up creamed butter, so the batter looks curdled and holds less air. Eggs that have sat out a bit usually blend in smoothly and help the cake rise more evenly.
Same eggs. Different temperature. Different cake.
A little waiting before you mix shows up in the crumb.
