The list of cars you can’t open anymore once the battery dies is much longer than just “Tesla”. Some may have cumbersome workarounds (I’ve e heard some only have non-electric mechanism to open the trunk). Others require you to have a physical key that you normally don’t need and isn’t part of the everyday key (so it’s probably at home somewhere in a box, and this would’ve had the same result).

A cumbersome workaround is better than no workaround at all. I’d take a hidden backup cylinder over no cylinder at all.
