I have two of those; in fact, my house has all "perimeter" sensors and no motion. What you describe only works if the sensor is non-latching. A latching sensor will trigger the alarm as soon as it reconnects. AFAIK, most glass breaks are capable of latching, though most are not set up to do so. Changing the setting is trivial. Alarm companies have put quite a bit of thought over the decades into anti-tamper measures. I suspect the reason the "hole" described in the article exists is because someone felt the other AT measures would cover it adequately enough for typical usage.
