Okay, but why would you want to do that?
Similarly, lots of apartment keys and office keys are just FOBs now.

Why would I want to depend on my phone instead of a key though? Phone batteries run out all the time

I regularly get through the day without running out of power. And an extra thing in my pocket is annoying, especially when I need to dig it out in order to use it. Same reason I prefer to open my garage with a clicker than to unlock a big deadbolt by hand.
If running out of power is a real fear, you can always do the “hide a spare key under a fake rock near the door” trick.

Try starting your day at 25% with a hectic schedule.
Also those smart locks are super hackable. Lock picking at least requires skill.
