John,
I asked a question on that forum about "Why can't I lock my car without a key fob"?
And received a shitstorm from 2 millennials (sorry!) and a MODERATOR!
"Why don't you keep your fob in your pocket 24/7? We do!"
And
"It's to prevent anyone from interacting with your car!"
The door panel switches only work if:
You have a fob in your pocket, AND you are SITTING IN THE CAR!
Seemed weird to me, but they apparently know better....
For your edification:

We ROCK, guys and gals!
