Physical security doesn't have the same parameters as digital security though. The pool of attackers on the internet is much larger and more sophisticated than those looking to break into the average person's home.
To put it in more concrete terms. The door to my home has 2 deadbolt locks. I would be highly surprised to learn that either can't be picked in a short period of time by someone with enough skill. That said the probability of that happening to my door is relatively low. The same level of exploitability in a web browser though is much more likely to be a problem.
In short the pools of likely attackers for my home is quite different from the pool of attackers for my digital presence. The primary concern I have with IoT is it's potential to expand the pool of attackers for my home.
