Why is a shorter read distance sometimes beneficial?

a. There are times when a long range can be detrimental to RFID data collection. This is because ALL the RFID tags in the read range are read at pretty much the same time.
b. With a shorter more controlled or directional range, there is less risk of interference, and less chance that you will encode the wrong RFID tag.
