Must be a TQ thing, to obsess over an arguably minor detail.

tl;dr The car acts like an empty beer bottle that someone's blowing across. Read here for a more detailed answer

I thought you can't start the car without the key fob....

Sounds like to me you were close enough to enable the push start. Not quite a critical security issue IMHO. But you are quite entertaining though. carry on
