Maybe this is what you mean, but my take on the ICE starting when you go from D to R is this.

If the car is in reverse and you allow it to coast forward, even by a few inches, it will start the ICE. I believe this is because the car thinks you want to go backwards and yet the car is going forward which means that - in the car's thinking - the ERAD is failing to propel the car so the ICE steps in.

As long as I don't allow my car to roll in the opposite direction to the chosen gear then I never find I suffer from spurious ICE starting.
