Default Brake Hold Button?

Does anyone know if the LX (2017 and newer) has a Brake "Hold" option. This option allows you to come to a full stop at a light and then remove your foot from the brake pedal so your foot doesn't get tired. The Hold button, when on, holds the brakes for you until you press the gas pedal. It's on the new RX, my Mercedes S550 and on Subaru outbacks. (Im sure on many other cars too). But I can't find that feature anywhere on the LX.

2013 IS-350 has a hill hold option. Simply firmly depress brake pedal while stopped on an up hill and it doesn't roll backwards.

IMO it takes more effort than I would have expected. i.e must mash pedal pretty firmly to activate.

There is no break hold function for LX.
