I suspect, but do not know for sure that the Transit button is to lock the suspension for transportation. Should be in the owners handbook.
Thank you, sorry no pic as the car is not with me at the moment but I've googled it and it's common (transit switch, transport switch), I just can't see if the car can be driven using it.

I cannot see how locking the suspension would help overcome a failed ignition switch

I've no real idea but i bet this doesn't actually do much once the car is out of delivery mode.
I expect this is nothing to do with setting transport height which locks the suspension as stated above
If it bypasses the ignition switch them you just have to hope theives don't know about it

Transportation Mode : To enable the vehicle to be delivered safely from the factory to the dealership, the air suspension system is set in
transportation mode. When the engine is running, the ride height will be set at 'Transportation High', which is 20 mm
below standard ride height. All four LED's will remain illuminated.
When the engine is not running, the air suspension ECU will drop the ride height by 50 mm (Transportation Low). All
four LED's will flash.
When the ride height is at 'Transportation Low' the vehicle can be lashed to a transporter, without the risk of loosening
due to the suspension ride height lowering.
*Edit* just to say you can't start the vehicle with this button.

Ignition bypass? That would be a thief's delight and I am sure that the car would not have a certificate of conformity if that were the function of the button.
