It will launch the game for the launcher as soon as it is done patching.
Yes, I assumed as much...what processes are being bypassed to launch the game immedeiately after patching? If they're not important, shouldn't it just luanch into the game then anyway? Why the need to hit Engage?
Some people like to read the news and patch notes, or want to patch overnight (where there is no reason to keep the GPU ticking over all night), etc etc. It seems like a less surprising default to have it wait, but to each their own :-) It isn't any faster per se, it just doesn't wait for human interaction to start the game client.
