This is literally the only valid reason for such a product, and unfortunately is also the loophole most vendors use in order for these to be legal to sell.
I hadn’t thought of that but you’re right! I tend to place my arm on the passenger seat while driving and it sometimes sets off the alarm if anything is sitting on the seat.

My Volt is insane about this. 3 sheets of paper? alert. cell phone calbe? alert. Car Keys? fine. fast food? fine as long as it’s not pizza. I can lay three chesesteaks on the seat and it DGAF, one slice of 7-11 pizza? we’re all gonna die.

I’ve found a good smack tends to get the sensors to calm down.
