So, if you are counting, there are three active keys and they all work.

The dealer seems to be, no pun intended, the key. :-)
However if there is something in a key which gets hard programmed to a particular vehicle, then your original key had already be programmed to your vehicle. This alone does not in anyway negate theory that the programming cannot be changed from one vehicle to another.

Looking at the PIWIS video it says, if I remember correctly, that an old key cannot be reprogrammed not that it is not permitted.

I picked up my CP0'd 08' S Friday. I made sure It had two keys.
