We know what the first card of Ace dealt to a player is worth in BJ.  What is the first card being a 10 worth to the player if anything in a Double Deck game say... off the top.  Is the 10 too general of a card to come to a conclusion about an advantage?  There was a misdeal that happened for the better recently.

Yes. And the infinite-deck approximation finds a player first card 10 is worth 14.3% for an S17 game and 14.0% for a H17 game. Below is a table of infinite-deck values for various first cards for a 3-splits-allowed, no RSA game H17 game (before dealer peeks for blackjack):
| 1st Card | EV (%) | 
|---|---|
Ace  | 50  | 
Ten  | 14  | 
9  | -1  | 
8  | -9  | 
7  | -18  | 
6  | -21  | 
5  | -20  | 
4  | -18  | 
3  | -15  | 
2  | -13  |
