And many newer cars will stop the engine if you stop the car with the clutch up. And also can activate the parking break at the same time.

Many newer cars don't have a manual clutch anymore, so the brake is the only reasonable way. Idle only will typically coast in those. Parking gear/brake will work but is annoying to use - and it is better to use the foot brake anyway most of the time.
