Just for curiosity's sake. The transmission for cars with stop/start have a oil pump to maintain the correct hydraulic pressure to keep the first gear in standby mode ready to pressurise the clutches at start up. Similarly Twin Engine variants have a pump to provide lubrication when in electric drive with the engine stopped.
