Good news and worth knowing.
Thank you David that helps me a lot.

As to what is and isn't alarmed.
1/. One fob press locks the doors and sets the ultrasonic internal movement sensor.
2/. A double press of the fob sets the door locks to superlock. If the car is left with the roof down, the doors can not be opened by operating the internal door handles.
3/. Using the key to lock the car, locks the doors but disables the internal sensor. Useful for leaving dogs or small humans in the car. Discretion advised.
So, by using the key the internal movement sensor is disabled. Ok, got that. Is it possible to engage the super lock by using the key only and not by using the fob?
There may be situations where superlocking could be an advantage but without engaging the movement sensor (leaving the car unattended in remote area for the day close to a popular path or view point). A movement sensor activation by a fly, casual contact by an innocent person/animal or heat shimmer would be an unwelcome disturbance and probably flatten the battery.

Nope, not possible to superlock without the internal sensor. You could always unplug the sensor, or introduce a switch into the circuit.🤔
