Discouraging theft may well be a useful side effect, but there has to
be more to it than that.
I mean, how would anyone actually get caught in practical terms? Do
people stay up at night in case their employers to send the battery
police round? When they hear the a knock on their door do they hide
the remotes under the sofa?
Perhaps it's also a discounting mechanism for Duracell or something?
