Not trying to start a firestorm, but the battery/charging system and starter are designed to work together for the Auto Stop/Start. I owned a 2017 F150 previous to my 2025 ST. I got used to the Auto Stop/Start...never turned it off. Starter never went out on it, battery was replaced at the six year point...which isn't bad for a battery in ANY vehicle. In other words, this may be annoying to you as a system in your car, but it has been designed for it, and it won't harm any of the components in your car if you leave it alone...
