I was kinda wondering that myself... unless the implication that there is a camera or other "smart tech" in an elevator that knows how many humans are in the car and this data is being consumed in real time by someone who cares.

In that case, tracking by smartphone is superfluous. They already got the location data through entirely different means, and they'd know there were four people in there even if none of them had a smartphone on them.

Many modern elevators track weight changes and refuse to even attempt to work if the weight/person count is above the limit.

  weight - sure, scales are old and very reliable tech. count? I am having trouble believing this.

    I've seen elevators that show the current occupancy/max on a display, so they're tracking it somehow.
