When placing a Framework 13 on top of another Framework 13 laptop, the screen will turn off. How come?

I wonder if it’s detecting a magnet at the front edge from the closed lid of the notebook underneath, telling the system on top that the lid is closed?
95% this. I’ve done the same thing with my lenovo when I pushed it up against my speaker.
That sure seems likely. A neodymium waved around in the right place would confirm.
The magnet on my watch band makes my Framework 13 go to sleep sometimes. It was so annoying I got a different band.
In this thread:
The sensor that recognizes if the laptop is closed sits on the left, next to the audio jack. If you get a magnet within 2-3 cm of it, it triggers and the screen turns off. Seems like the magnet in the lid of the other laptop is just close enough.
