For the turbo, the reason I was always told was to let the turbo and engine temp come down some before loosing the oil pressure and to also let the turbo slow down if you just got done running on the highway. Never heard of oil galling as a reason to idle, but they do say to idle for atleast 3 minutes.
For the warm up, as long as the engine is running on all cylinders and has pressure, you can go to work with it. Maybe start out light until it's up to temp, but it's not neccesary to idle that long. I'm guessing if you don;t do much to work it your deisel is starting to wet stack by the end of the winter season. Had a loader tractor (Oliver 1755) that was a diesel and that one would be wet stacked horrible by the end of winter. Just moving manure wasn't enough work for it in the winter so it never burnt all of the fuel. First chance we had we would work it some in the field to clear it up.
