No "M" animation on startup--why?

No matter how long my car sits, I almost never get the animated "M" graphic on the navigation screen when I start the car. I understand that the full startup sequence doesn't run if the car has not been shut off for some lengthy period of time, but shouldn't 24 hours be sufficient to get the full startup animation?

Every once in a while, I will get the "M" animation on the navigation when I start the car (which is how I know its there in the first place) but it seems to be completely random and unrelated to the amount of time the car has sat. Also, it makes no difference whether I lock the car or leave it in my garage unlocked.

In contrast, I always get the "M" graphic on the HUD on my morning startup.

It's obviously not a big deal but seriously, what gives?
