OK, again, that's been true with or without the engine start/stop button. It's called remote start, and it's orthogonal.
Some people even install aftermarket remote start on manual transmission cars with keys. What could possibly go wrong?
Many new cars have an engine start/stop button, but the engine WILL NOT start or stop unless you physically push the button.
(Well, the obvious exception is the engine will not start but will stop when it runs out of fuel and/or oxygen.)
