Having a separate key for the trunk was very common historically, not sure why.
Off topic, but reminder to everyone who needs it, close up photos of keys is a security problem. With relatively little training you can recreate a key from a photo. If you know the person who posted the photo, that’s an easy target.
You’re not wrong, but if you really want to understand how fucked the past was, until about a decade ago you could go on eBay and buy a key that would open and start almost any police vehicle.

I thought the first part was so that you could give a valet the keys to park and retrieve your car, but not easily get to your belongings.

Just because another security flaw exists, it doesn’t invalidate the first security flaw.
Not posting pictures of your keys online goes far beyond automotive security.
