good question

first of all, those are not switches anymore, they are buttons, and second, there are small computers in a lot of things nowadays, such small computers (or simpler chips) are instructed by the press of the button and it’s up to them to keep on or off the features…. also today a real switch costs more than a button and microchip (but this depends)
