Low compression on a cold engine is a major cause for hard starts or no starting. Once the engines warm it always starts easier. So wouldn't a cold compression check give you a better idea of the state of the engine.
no.

you want to measure the running performance of the engine and it's efficiency capabilities. ie- warm.
