Right. Much like the fact Find My functionality can still let you track your phone when it’s “dead”, the power requirements are just so low that when the phone can’t get going due to the requirements of the CPU + RAM + display there’s plenty to power NFC/BT beacon stuff for a while. An AirTag can operate on a CR2032 for two years. An Energizer datasheet says that’s 235 mAh. An iPhone 13 Mini has a 2438 mAh battery (~10x). It makes sense the phone could do it for at least a day or two with the left over charge. (I don’t know how long it would actually keep working)
