I think he may have been speaking of security in terms of a backup to restrain the spare tire should one of the straps fail on a rough road...
Although security against theft might not be a bad idea either...
I had no idea someone had stolen the spare tire from under my 84 Ford F250 until I had a blow out and needed it. How long it had been missing was anyone’s guess. This was back in 86 so......
Insurance would have replaced it, but the deductible was more than the cost of the wheel and tire. So I was out the cash and glad I had AAA but had to hike to a pay phone...
