Vehicles(!) with "createAsSimpleObject=1;" move little down at mission start

Description

If we set the checkbox in the "Simple Object" attribute for vehicle (cars, trucks) or armored vehicle (tanks, APCs), then after starting the mission we will see that this vehicle has moved down a few centimeters

This does not happen if we disable only simulation in the attribute (will be in the same position as we set)

I've noticed that this doesn't happen with:

Helicopters
Props

There is a script that sets simple object params from vehicle config, you can compare that. AFAIK the data was gathered manually by one of the designers
