To add my two cents on a car I've never seen the inside of, it makes sense to me the internal contacts, if broken, of the switch itself (not the lock) are the only thing that could be keeping a key from moving all the way to the start position if it makes it to KP-II. The switch is where the spring-return for the start contact lives.

On other cars, the switch is easily, separately replaceable.

Being right is highly overrated. Even a stopped clock is right twice a day.
