This is totally something I'd do. I'm very organized when I travel for work and everything has a place. If I absentmindedly slip something into the wrong part of my bag, it might as well be invisible..

I have a photographic memory for items dropped in a terrible mess, years later "oh that thing is there under this and that"

I also have a problem with thinking of wise places to leave something and then it is gone forever unless I dig through 75% of everything I own. After I find it I am reminded of what my thought process was.

Get a bluetooth tracker (Apple Air Tag, Samsung Smart Tag or the generic Google Find My compatible one for other Android devices), set it up with your phone and attach it to your car keys.

Then anytime you misplace your keys, you can look at a map on your phone and it will show you where to go.

Yeah, big +1 on this tip. I have AirTags on my bags themselves as well as some other things. Don't have them on my key fob, but you may have inspired me to attach one haha.

The map thing when you're nearby and it goes into the sonar-like mode is super cool. Especially combined with the ping noise.

Airtag in the glove compartment of your car.

I'm a great example of "for someone supposed to be smart, you do the dumbest things"
