I believe it restarts when going into park because someone killed themselves accidentally because they left it in auto stop mode in their garage, after a while the battery was getting low so the engine started to charge it and gassed out their entire house. Apparently.
As for the post above saying it’s good for traffic jams in places like LA. It’s not really. In those sorts of traffic jams you usually only stop for a few seconds at a time before rolling forward at 10kmh or so. Auto stops only good for traffic lights around town when you have to wait for the full sequence
