Oh, the other nice feature on the Highlander is that it only shuts down with a certain amount of pressure on the brake, more than what is necessary to hold at a stoplight,and more than I typically use. It was a couple days into ownership that I discovered that it had start/stop in the first place. So, if I don't want to shut down, I just brake normally. If I know I'm coming up to a potentially long stop, I press a little harder to shut down. While this may not "optimize" the fuel and emissions savings as intended, it's a nice feature for the driver.
