Often turning on and off heaters (and more especially heat pumps) is harder on them than keeping them running a bit longer? Were you sure it was actually wrong

Often turning on and off heaters (and more especially heat pumps) is harder on them than keeping them running a bit longer? Were you sure it was actually wrong about the temperature and not just intent on not having to cycle on and off a ton?

My independent measurement showed that it had reached the setpoint about two minutes before the Nest updated its reading (to show that it had overshot by several degrees). It's possible that the Nest is trying to reduce the cycling, but if that were the case, it shouldn't affect the displayed temperature.
