The player(s) should think of intelligent ways to bypass relevant obstacles, and IMO this just isn't one. Moreover:ThisPlus:Command WordIf no activation method is suggested either in the magic item description or by the nature of the item, assume that a command word is needed to activate it. Command word activation means that a character speaks the word and the item activates. No other special knowledge is needed.A command word can be a real word, but when this is the case, the holder of the item runs the risk of activating the item accidentally by speaking the word in normal conversation. More often, the command word is some seemingly nonsensical word, or a word or phrase from an ancient language no longer in common use. Activating a command word magic item is a standard action and does not provoke attacks of opportunity.Excuse my reasoning, but to me it seems that:the holder of the item runs the risk of activating the item accidentally by speaking the word in normal conversation.=the holder of the item does not run the risk of activating the item accidentally by whispering it.</blockquote>
