I don't think this is correct and it's not the case for me. I can look in the app, see my phone is connected as phone key via Bluetooth, yet I still have to be very close to my car to be able to open the doors.The car will lock when you’re still within Bluetooth range, so you can’t base the range on that. If the car is locked and someone tries to open the door, it will unlock and open if the phone is still within Bluetooth range, which is what we presume happened in the OP’s case.
You can leave your phone twenty feet away and still get in your car?
Bluetooth connection isn't locking/unlocking the car, Bluetooth proximity is and that's the bit that gets potentially garbled.
