The thing that is unexplainable is that currently, I've been able to key start the car in park after driving it around some (I'd been bridging wiring in a box above the wheel well to get the engine to crank) If I can key start it at all in park, doesn't logic say that I have a working NSS? Or is it possible to start in park, after driving around a bit and shutting down, even without a working NSS? Please advise if you know...
thank you!!

Since it is part of a system there could be one or more problems in any part of the system. Battery, Ignition Switch, Neutral Safety Switch, Starter Solenoid, Starter Motor and the Ground.
Outside of the above system is the Shifter Bushings that if worn might not allow the Neutral Safety Switch to work.
If you are able to access the Wires above the Pedal and jump them to bypass the Neutral Safety Switch and are able to safely drive around like that remembering to start only in Park you will be able to see if a problem with the Neutral Safety Switch/Shifter Bushings or not.
