I am puzzled - why would stable RPM be a problem - I do not see a reason for that - why would a piston need to move inside the cylinder at varying speeds - it is still 'traveling' all the same way but the only difference rpm makes is 'intensity' ... or is linked to other parts of the engine?

During the first 1200 it's important to take it easy. Nothing over 4k RPM and limit your cruise control usage. If you do want to use the cruise control, put it in manual mode and every so often switch it from 8th to 7th to keep the revs varried. You just don't want it to stay at the same RPM for an extended period of time.
