Actually, I have done this, in the FR-S.

The original 2013 Pioneer base stock radio had a habit of dropping its pairing with my phone. The only way to resolve it was to power down the radio (turning it off with the switch did not suffice). Put the car in neutral, turn the key off, but not locked, restart the car. The act of engaging the starter temporarily cuts off all the accessories, essentially rebooting the radio.

I didn't say it was a wise thing, just that I did it.
