The video is a compelling demonstration of a design flaw, but I am always skeptical of lock opening displays that do not occur in a real-world application of the lock.
Yeah, you ramsetted a lock. In a vise. Can you do that if it is dangling from a chain between two gate halves? Or would you bring out a bench and vise to your target?
Ok, you picked a lock. In a vise. Is it easily pickable while hanging from a hasp, with a door behind it?
Ok, you drilled open a smart lock. Is the drill able to be positioned in such a manner when the lock is installed on a door?
It doesn't look like it.
After drilling, you need to insert a screwdriver and manipulate a latch.
Is drilling/manipulating faster/slower/easier/more difficult than picking, raking, ramsetting, grinding, kicking, or prying?
I like clever, but clever isn't always practical.
