Some years ago, had a couple of 'Save the Planet Activists' screaming for everybody to turn cars off while waiting for traffic lights to change.

Lots of cars shut off now when idling. It's annoying. I first ran into it on a rental. Thought the car died on me, but sure enough, hit the gas and it starts back up. My wife's new Highlander has the feature but it can be turned off.

Maybe you meant it to be ironic but *know it alls.

Edit to add, I believe the video is fake. I don't even know if Tesla's do "idle". But if they do, they are not making sound and she would not think it was idling.

Air con running can be heard.

You figure the lady heard his AC from where ever and came over to give him grief? Nah, staged for views. She banged on his closed window. I mean, maybe she could hear the compressor from under the hood. But doubtful.

Actually, just looked at the Youtube channel. The same guy in the same car seems to get "Karens" knocking on his window a lot for all sorts of reasons.

It is annoying! And isn't it bad for a car engine to be constantly shut off and switched back on again? Like pizza/food delivery cars always take a beating from that sort of treatment I thought...

I didn't figure anything, just stated you can hear air con turning over.
The rest of it is all your assumption.
Staged or not, I thought the video was amusing.

It takes 10 seconds of idling to use the amount of fuel for starting an automobile. However, there is wear and tear on the starter motor.

And engine starting back up. I willing to bet when vehicles get older they won’t start back up
