I'm 23....
i learned to drive on my mom's 2002 Lincoln LS v8 (key)
my 'first' car was the last 4 months of my dads '05 lincoln LS v8 (Key)
After my mom's lincoln she leased an 05 m35x (push button)
after my dad's lincoln he bought a 2008 g35x (push button)
after my dad's lincoln i bought a 2008 altima coupe (push button)
after my mom's m35x she leased a 2009 g37x (push button)
after i got bored of my 2008 altima coupe i bought the 370z (push button)
3 weeks ago i bought a 1994 300zx twin turbo.... (push button... just kidding)
so as you can see, most of my driving has been done on push button start nissans.

I press the button for as long as it needs to be pressed, which isn't very long. tapping the button as long as the clutch is depressed is enough to start the car.

also of note: higher end cars have not required the operator to hold the key in ignition position (usually position #4 just past "ON") for a while. my step mom's last car was a 2000 BMW 740iL and all you had to do was just tap it into ignition and let go and the car would hold the starter circuit until it had fully started.
