In the case of the Plymouth, it was probably cost. The "N" pushbutton
starter meant more wiring, etc.
Not sure why DeSoto was left out, but Dodge, Chrysler, Imperial and the
Canadian-built DeSoto Firedome had it.
As it turned out, it was a neat idea but must have caused more trouble and
confusion as it did not last long - one year.
