I think this simple explanation is exactly right. If I start mine weekly or more often it fires right up like a car. If I’m only starting it for it’s monthly exercise it can take a bit of priming and a couple of tries even though my generator is right next to the gas tank. Nothing wrong and no big deal so long as it behaves consistently and does it’s job.
