How do Hybrid cars (or any car that ‘cuts off’ when idle) not just blow their starter or have massive wear on the engine?

Question

Basically the title. I was always told most engine damage is done when starting the car, I live in a city and see and hear cars cutting off at every stoplight. How does that not blow the starter or engine?

My F150 doesn’t use the starter in this process. The computer injects gas and then fires the spark plug on whichever cylinder is ready to fire.
