 comment Is there a general procedure for retrofitting “smart key” cars with real keys?
Brand new cars, perhaps. But you don't have any business buying a brand new car if you don't want brand new car features.

I doubt there is, because anyone that doesn't want to use a smart key should just buy a car that doesn't have a smart key.

 comment Does switching to neutral on an automatic transmission improve braking for immediate stopping?
There's not any magic going on behind the curtain. You are either in neutral or you are in gear. Automatic transmissions use a torque converter allow you to come to a stop in gear, so the forces of your idling engine are negligible. If you want a lot of detail you should read up on torque converters.

You bring up a good point. The forces in the engine might even slow your car down faster than simply coasting in neutral!
