Missing the heart-beat start button

I've never noticed mine.
But I always just get in, foot on brake, push button, flip to dynamic, and go.
Maybe have to get in, no brake, push button to turn on, and then in that state it does the pulse/throb thing? I've only done that once when I was trying to get the car in neutral without starting (can't).

I have a 2014 V6S and the Start/Stop Button definitely does the heart-beat pulse. However, it does not do it all the time. It only seems to do it when I first get into the car; and only after I put my foot on the Brake peddle. It does not pulse after you turn the car off; even I take my foot off the brake and put it back on again.
Also, it is not very bright. In strong light, it is very hard to notice.

Never noticed it in the V8S convertible, but again, maybe same issue of just not paying attention.

I also noticed it for the first time this morning in a dark garage. Mine is a base car, so they all must have it. With the long summer days, I haven't driven the car in darkness in the 3 months since I took delivery. The back lighting is not very bright, so I'm guessing you wouldn't notice it in bright ambient light.
I suppose it's useful for finding the start button in a dark car at night.
