The Mazda stop start system does not use the starter to fire up the engine.
No worries about wearing it out.
From Mazda's own site:

Yes it does. That info is a bit misleading but if you look at diagram 3 it says says combustion with starter assist and the starter is shown turning. It is however only used to initiate rotation for a third of a second and the diesel is just under half a second.
