Who leaves 10K worth of anything in their car? I get antsy leaving my $200 laptop hidden under my seat! This person is crazy.

There is also no guarantee they person who stole the bag wouldn't dump the bag(with the hidden AirTag) and just keep the gear or that the police would help recover it even if you gave them the location(many times the don't).

Usually, cars are worth more than 10K and they are often left out in the street!

Yeah but someone can't pick up my car and walk away with it on their back, can they now, genius?

Cars are impractical to carry by hand, while a lot of expensive computer / photo / audio gear can easily be carried in a tote bag.
