Why can't I use my iPhone as a hot spot to my apple tablet if my phone is in my pocket?

Pretty sure it’s powering on the screen that does it. Even when sitting on a table I can’t hot spot till I pick up the phone, the movement of which powers on the screen. I thought it was getting a Face ID that did it, but if you’re saying you don’t have to unlock then it’s possible it’s wanting just enough interaction to know the connection is intentional so you don’t accidentally use up your data cap.
