A car 'sitting' is one thing. A car sitting with the battery disconnected is another.

All I know is these days some cars have computers and crap that will go bonkers even if the battery is disconnected for a few minutes. The dealer actually has to put a temporary power supply on the battery leads while the battery is being changed out.
