Not sure what a spare fob with no battery locked inside a vehicle will do for you.

Use the physical key that's wired under your vehicle to open the door.
Turn on/insert battery into your fob. Disable the alarm with the fob.
Replace spare key in hiding spot.
Start vehicle and be on your way.

It’s locked inside the vehicle.

They said under the vehicle. Like wire it flat against chassis in a place that’s not easily seen

Once you are in the car, yes.

You would keep the battery with the fob if it doesn't have the option to turn it off.
Lithium cells will last unused for 10 years.

"use a piece of wire to attach it under the vehicle, or somewhere inconspicuous."
He literally said "under the vehicle", not inside of it. If you have the battery on you (or even also attached somewhere), and the spare fob attached to the chassis somewhere, if you're locked out you can pull the spare fob out, put the battery in and be on your way.
