Uhm, the accessories most definitely turn off when the doors are shut. The HVAC goes off immediately (unless someone is sitting in the front seats), and the Accy rail goes off about 10 minutes later depending on what mode the power state machine is in. (Sentry mode, etc)
Hard to believe you and the wife don't use a smartphone at all which would relegate the backup key as a card in your wallet, as your phone makes the action of handling a key unnecessary unless you lose it or it's dead. Yeah, grumble-grumble, get off my lawn, but I've since went to fingerprint locks on my doors, and don't carry keys anymore, it's really nice! For the same reason soldering is not recommended for applications where there is vibration and movement, you may soon find the solder wick will work harden quickly where you soldered it, and the expensive (and redundant) fob will be lost in short order. Besides, I bet she carries a purse, which is a fine place to leave the fob/card, as you don't really ever need to touch it.
