1. Re the Stop/Start feature. It's a Love/Hate relationship. There are some auto mfrs that do not have an on/off switch - it's always activated - that would have been a NOGO re our new car purchase. We have a set routine when starting our MB - the ECO on/off is switched off and our dashcam is switched on. We do turn the ECO ON when just missing a long light etc. Cannot see having it ON all the time and having the engine off for short stops - even a stop sign...

2. Re the OP question of dumbest feature on a car? The Nut on the steering wheel.
