Safety switches pre-date that by a lot, the first Powerglides had them... My 1957 ford fairlane has one as well.
When 4 wheeling in rocks its very common to stall a vehicle engine and restart in gear because if you hit the clutch you will go backwards down hill very fast. BAD>>>>
The Torque convert as well as the transmission pump and hydraulics are all turning when you crank the starter, its just bypassing until you switch the auto to a gear that engages a planetary and puts power to the road... Much like that AC clutch....
