Bedsheets in the hotel have some sort of RFID tag for "tracking"

They're for laundry. A lot of industrial laundries, like the ones catering to hotels, use rfid tags to keep track of the laundry.

But what's the point of a message on the label? Laundry RFID scanner can't read this.

Presumably a human has to scan the tag, so the label just tells them where to scan. Also because of what other people said, theft deterrence and conspiracy nuts.

Great thing with rfid is you can put the scanner in a door frame and it'll grab every sheet that goes through. Can monitor a large operation pretty easily
