Your judgement is only as good as your information / data.
So, the more information & experience you have, the better you will perform. This applies to all areas of life.

Excellent information

It seems the cold patch last longer than the hot rocks!!

What temperature outside is needed for patching roads?

[@MichaelJeffers75]

Why isn't Infrared heating considered? Broil the pavement making all asphalt workable, add hot mix as needed, and compact leaving a seamless patch that will outlast every other method all in about 30 minutes time.

why not just spraypatch it? its quicker cheaper and outlasts the asphalt around it
