LMBmikeZ posits that it's the car doing an extra self-check. Sounds reasonable to me, but what is it checking and why doesn't it get checked every time?
probably just going through the usual system checks, checking steering wheel lock and unlocking it, making sure there is fuel in the tank, making sure everything is all good to start without damaging the motor, or ecu delay

its all drive by wire tbh and as much as i like my start button, it just doesnt replace the key-barrel
