One for the ignition and one for the trunk

Having a separate key for the trunk was very common historically, not sure why.

Off topic, but reminder to everyone who needs it, close up photos of keys is a security problem. With relatively little training you can recreate a key from a photo. If you know the person who posted the photo, that’s an easy target.

I thought the first part was so that you could give a valet the keys to park and retrieve your car, but not easily get to your belongings.
