Range doesn't matter that much
This will only be exploited by corporate espionage. How about I drop an intercept/repeater behind your desk? Then I can listen from further away. Maybe I can exploit it through the cubicle wall?

You're right in that this won't be exploited very often, but could be used in targeted espionage situations. Me, I'm just to cheap to buy these anyway....
