If my neighbor came to my house and said their missing laptop is showing up in my house and I didn't steal it I'd obviously let them come in and see.

Since when do you treat your neighbors with that kind of default animosity?

If there is a back story that is one thing but who cares if your neighbor looks inside briefly to see the find my feature is malfunctioning.

Have you missed the part where the neighbor is at my door accusing me of being a thief?

How on earth can you say "Find my Mac says my laptop is in your house." without saying they're a thief? Do you need to add "...I'm not saying you stole but it was stolen. Maybe the real thief stashed in it your cupboard?" Or do you add "...let's see if Find my Mac is broken?"

I'm not sure how someone would approach that situation. But I can say that if someone comes to my door and accuses me of being a thief, that interaction is not starting off well.
