Of course this could apply to many other activities.
Imagine you are at the beach with just a towel to lay on and want to jump in the water - what would you do with the ELECTRONIC FOB? Nightmare.
This way, the waterproof and inexpensive card can be safely zipped up in you wet pocket and away you go.
This is my understanding of the logic behind it.

I imagine that it won't be inexpensive. It's a bmw, nothing for them are inexpensive lol.
I had to replace a fender finisher piece of trim on my X4(where the side blinker would be) and it was 100 dollars. For a small triangular piece of plastic. This card is probably going to be pricey.
