And.... ?
You still need to set the initial condition AFAIK. If you could determine the result analytically you wouldn't need spice.
Whether the starting point is called 0 or 300 is pretty much irrelevant surely.
And, of course, there is a difference between what is done and what is necessary.

Whether the starting point is 0 or 300 can be quite relevant. And Spice finds the initial conditions for you, assuming it can evaluate the functions at that point. Having to define the initial conditions for a circuit is tens or hundreds of thousands of nodes could be sort of annoying.
Nah, they're just labels. There is no absolute zero for time (except maybe for the big bang)
That would be the simulation I mentioned above.
You either have to define the initial condition or simulate to it from a different condition. If you can calculate it analytically you don't need spice.
