Depends what you do with your key i guess....ignoring the security vulnerabilities, i think it’s a great, convenient feature. My key lives in that small coin pocket bit you get on jeans, and i never need to touch it. Much better than fumbling about with a key bunch of keys IMO (I don’t have many keys anyway)
I need to get the keys out my pocket anyway to unlock the steering wheel lock so doesn't make a difference. Plus i already have the keys in my hand if locking the front door

I read that the new keys ‘go to sleep’ if motionless for a few seconds and can’t be remotely ‘woken’.
The new keys will not be sleeping if in your pocket whilst you are in the shop so still be vulnerable to signal capture. A small improvement but I would rather not have had the keyless feature at all.

I have a menu option on my 2019 GT to disable the keyless entry. Have now disabled mine.
