I don't understand. If you press 'hold' while in first gear, it will stay in first. Same applies to second. But if you have it in 'drive' even if you wait until it is in high gear to press the 'hold' button, it's not going to stay in high indefinitely. It has to downshift as you decelerate. Or, in the event that you stop, it's certainly not going to remain in 'high', because you can't start out in high gear.
