I'm not up to date on this stuff (or who you even asked), but I think that situation might be helpful for someone trying to figure out leaving/return patterns for a street/neighborhood

An AirTag doesn't help with that - you're basically looking at a bluetooth beacon. All apple's devices randomly rotate wifi+bluetooth MAC addresses in order to prevent that.
