And yet if I do just open the door to the Mayor's office and it's unlocked and I wander in, that's still not the same sort of trespass as entering someone's home.
And, if I'm in City Hall, the mechanism that keeps me from entering the Mayor's office should be the security guards and key-cards, not my disinclination to open a door.
