Nope, it's just a spare key.

And yes... I think there is a specific sequence of buttons you press with the Uprev tune to engage/disable valet mode.

VALET HAND-OFF
When you have to leave a key with a valet, give
them the Intelligent Key itself and keep the
mechanical key with you to protect your
belongings.
To prevent the glove box from being opened
during valet hand-off, follow the procedures
below.
1. Remove the mechanical key from the Intelligent
Key.
2. Lock the glove box with the mechanical key.
3. Hand the Intelligent Key to the valet, keeping
the mechanical key in your pocket or bag for
insertion into the Intelligent Key when you
retrieve your vehicle.

Right. Just found it in the manual. There's always something new to learn about these cars!
