Should Nunu and Willump always build full tank even when the game is decided mostly by map tempo?

Not necessarily. The tank base remains the most reliable because it lets Nunu and Willump survive their own entries, but some slots should mainly serve map tempo or correct the threat type that makes your ganks and objectives non-convertible. The real criterion is not 'full tank or not,' but 'does the build still let you impose another useful window after first contact?'.

Is Dead Man's Plate really priority when Nunu must repeat his angles across the whole map?

Dead Man's Plate becomes truly priority when the game rewards repeated pathing more than mere toughness in the first fight: chained ganks, fast objective cycles, or side lanes that cannot be locked without extra speed. If the main issue is AP or sustain first, you often need to fix that before paying more for map speed.

Gargoyle or Quicksilver on Nunu & Willump depending on whether they mainly need to survive impact or enter through crowd control?

Gargoyle remains the best choice when you enter correctly but die too quickly after impact, because it turns a good opening into real lasting presence. Quicksilver comes first if one key crowd control effect simply stops you from starting the correct engage or makes you lose the angle before your frontline has even started to matter.

Utility tank build for forced tempo: Nunu and Willump create value well before teamfights by imposing gank, objective, and tempo threat that forces the opponent to play faster than they would like. The build must preserve that cadence without turning every entry into decorative suicide.

Nunu & Willump create value by accelerating the game's pace and turning space into immediate threat. Their build must preserve that execution speed while preventing a good engage from turning into a free death before a second control cycle.
