Because like anything else, that is easier said than done. Yes theoretically that should work just fine. In the real world I had to have everything absolutely lined up perfectly and it took several tries and finally it worked, but it was not easy.


Just like turning on the alarm for the limited BRZ takes practice, and the pedal dance takes practice. And you're assuming everyone knows exactly how to do it and where to put the fob, which will never be the case.


You cannot wear out a keyed ignition. Cars simply don't last long enough for that to happen.
