Default Question about starting the engine remotely using the Enform App

Does anybody know why, after starting the engine remotely, the engine shuts off when any of the vehicle's doors (trunk included) are opened? I can't imagine it being an issue of security, so what gives?

Thanks!

Why wouldn't the doors automatically lock, thereby requiring the remote to be within three feet of the door handle?
