Start/Stop system doesn’t do anything in these conditions. All it does is that it stops engine when you are stationary. Say, on a red light or in a traffic jam. It will reignite once either you start moving or battery voltage drops below certain point. Other than that, it has no effect either positive or negative in situations you have described.

What use does an Auto-Start/Stop system have in those kind of conditions? I doubt you have an answer.

The start stop system (in any car) is not as dumb as you think. It will not stop the engine when it is cold for example. It has a lot of conditions to actually stop the engine.
Don’t worry, it is not a safety hazard. Plenty of smart people have spent countless hours to make pretty damn sure that it is safe in all thinkable circumstances

It stops the engine. When you’re standing still. Are you sure you know how the system works?
