If you press lock and unlock button simultaneously on your fob, hold for 3-5 seconds, Porsche crest lights solid, key is now asleep. No searching. You can leave it on the car, next to the car. Movement will not wake it. Press any button on the fob and it reactivates. Good to go.
Great hack BTW - well done!!!

@siberian our 21s vins are just a few hundred apart, so guessing they should be similar in this respect. The behavior on my key slightly different from the ‘21 manual description, but the outcome is the same (comfort access is off). When I press and hold the lock and unlock buttons simultaneously for a few seconds, the light on the fob briefly lights up, then goes off. At that point comfort access is disabled. Give it a try?
