The push-button start and key start of modern cars both involve the same amount of electronics. If you turn a key on a new car for more than 20 seconds, the starter automatically stops. The same thing happens if you try to start a car that is already running.

The key on my car lets me turn on the radio, start my car, stop my car, and remove the steering wheel lock. On the steering column, there is a device that allows me to lock my steering wheel when I have the key out, unlock my steering wheel when the key is in, and shift out of park when the brake pedal is pushed and the key is turned. Just like the doors and locks in my car, the system has never failed. The system is simple, and works every time, even after 230,000+ miles of driving. Why fix what isn't broken?
