e.g. 60 AH, 840 Hours, would mean a discharge of 70mA would flatten it
completely.

Alarm (set or not it is still drawing some power), radio memory, FI brain,
Ign brain, clock, and the battery's own discharge, all add up.
The alarm that I have just bought quotes 20mA, a ten year old alarm (older
technology) can easily be 40-50mA.

Buy a battery maintainer.
