I saw this article posted by John Gruber. It's interesting. Yes, it's still a person tracking another person with an Airtag. In this case though, I think it's justified as the driver is being paid to deliver her stuff.
She put the Airtag inside a box of her son's toys.
EDIT: They had already been waiting a month for their belongings to arrive.
The kicker:

The mover was supposed to drop off the goods on Friday, January 7, but when that didn't happen, the moving company told McNulty to expect the delivery on Sunday. A few hours after that call, however, the truck driver transporting their belongings called to say that he just picked up their shipment in Colorado and the earliest he could get it to them would be Monday.
McNulty knew better. Using her AirTag, she found out that the driver was not in Colorado, but only a half day's drive south in Elizabeth, New Jersey.
"When we brought up the fact that we knew his exact location he hung up on us," McNulty later recalled. "He then called back several minutes later and said 'well the earliest I can get it to you is Sunday.'"
The kicker:
Even worse, the driver was not in Elizabeth due to a mechanical malfunction or a medical emergency. No, it was simply, "to see his lady," McNulty recalled him saying.
