So they could add a power switch to the fob or make it need a button press. Maybe people don't think it's worth it. Could also keep your fob in a radio frequency blocking bag.

It's usually working without a dedicated fob and uses the users phone to open and start the car.

I believe they have an option where you need a pin to start the engine at least however I'm not an owner
