2019 RDX Alarm Issues/Immobilizer

Last night the alarm starting going off in the middle of the night, keyfob was unresponsive. Manually used the physical key got in the car alarmed now silenced however I noticed the flashing red light, the same light that indicated the alarm is still engaged. The car would not start, I left it as is and an hour later the alarm went off again so I disconnected the battery (Negative terminal). The next morning I connected the battery got in infotainment asked for a code, I pushed the power button for a few secs until that was gone. Still couldnt start the car right away, took a few presses of the start button with/without pressing the brake. Eventually I got it started took it to the Acura dealer, they said the fob and and car battery are ok and that the issue is with the alarm system as a whole and the part is on order arriving early Decemeber they say 🤦‍♂️(backordered). I also have to bring my key fobs to be re-programmed as well, everything is covered under warranty praise the lord.
So I am stuck with this annoyance, everytime I park I disonnect the battery. Trying to preserve the battery, also carrying a booster pack just incase. You guys got any suggestions to make my life easier until this is fixed. Any procedure to start the car a little easier after disconnecting the battery?
