Most 'grounded' P&W A320neos actually have no engine. They are waiting for delivery of new parts.

Seriously, fact is that GTF is already hotter than LEAP, that's all. I don't think so. Have a look at the last comments in www.airliners.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=1365039You are comparing the EGT temperature of the P&W engine with the T4 temperature of the LEAP engine.

Ok, if I understand correctly: you say that EGT temperature of the P&W is higher than the T4 temperature of the LEAP engine.

Different point .. .. it is nice to observe that some long time stored P&W birds start to move around/out - so let's hope the issues are coped with

Fully agree, here is a good link to Bjorn’s Corner in leehamnews.com with engine's stations and some explanations: T4 is right after combustor, EGT (Exhaust Gas Temperature) beeing after HPT (T45) or LPT (T5) leehamnews.com/2017/04/14/bjorns-corner-aircraft-engines-sum/

So, we now know the reason P&W engine deliveries seemed to come almost to a halt in the last few weeks or even months. Let"s hope from now on we see a normal flow of deliveries ...
