Not necessarily. You can go into ACC and ON without depressing the clutch/brake. The fact that it's cycling through without starting makes me believe that the clutch switch is probably giving out. That switch gives the signal to go past "ON" and actually start the car.

I am starting to think that maybe I have a defective clutch switch as the culprit. I know it's fully engaging the switch, but maybe the switch is defective or faulty.

My money is on the clutch switch as well. I used to have an '08 Altima and they had similar issues as you described and it ended up being a faulty brake switch (Autos). Swap a new one in and it fired up like normal.
I still don't believe removing the fuse is the cause of the delay either. My Altima had an occasional delay as well and I did not disable the steering lock on that car. Z does the same thing.
