The floor count can be affected by a number of different factors. If a moderate breeze pops up the change in air pressure can you add a floor. Walking past the fan can have the same effect and moving from a warm environment directly into a colder environment can also have the same effect because all affect atmospheric pressure The same way that walking up a flight of stairs is measured using air pressure. As far as the golf cart and steps, I would not be surprised if swinging the club at the driving range or on the course might add steps. Also the bumping and the movement of the card  Over some surfaces might have the same effect as walking or bike riding. For someone who does not swing their arms a lot, but wants to get a more accurate step count holding onto the waistband of your pants as you walk will mimic bike riding and give you steps.
