From the keynote, that's why LPL puts a heavy focus on bike locks, gun safe locks, etc. The audiences for those locks have a more vested interest in physical security than mere "social conventions". A well-locked bike makes it more difficult for a thief to get all the / enough value from the target. A well-locked gun safe prevents accidents and saves lives.
Also, I live in an apartment on an upper floor. No accessible windows. The only viable way into my residence is through the front door. (There are like two RFID-gated doors before mine, but tailgating renders them pretty ineffectual, and let's not talk about elevator security.
