Just be aware, it's easy to over-twist the key.

Your problem almost happened to me, except I was immediately aware that the key had not returned, after I twisted it maybe just a little too vigorously one day.
I manually turned it back to run and bought and installed a new switch that day.
Your new switch and new starter should indeed last the lifetime of the car, just go light on the key turning.
