Did you get a new flywheel? I don't really get your question.

in the winter, during start up ur car is freezing cold, so it takes time to warm up ur oil and such... during summer the sun "pre heats " ur car and engines.. so it takes less time.. simple as that.

If you are not used to the rotary engine, it revs and drops much faster than a piston engine. I had to retrain myself to match the revs after coming out of an S2000. For a month I drove an STI and had trouble matching the revs in that after getting used to my 8 (not to mention I kept bouncing it off the rev limiter). To up-shift smoothly, I learned to do it very quickly or to not completely let off the gas. If you do that, you will shift smoothly.

I have been learning to rev match, and it is a heck of a lot more fun. I was wondering if it is better for the syncros?

Of course the Wankel ****.

It has nothing to do with the rotary engine. It all depends on the rotating inertia of your driveline components. If you change to a lighter flywheel your rpms will drop much faster, since it has less inertia. A little difference in mass anywhere may have a large effect on rpms. remember its always I^4

When on a date, it is much better than dragging the cluctch to make a smooth downshift. That way the girl isn't getting jerked around and she thinks you realy know how to drive.
