TPM locking is for ensuring the disk isn't removed from your machine. It's technically possible that someone could tap the hardware while the disk is still in your machine, but otherwise they're stuck contending with whatever other security setup you have on your machine.

The TPM locked disk encryption is more like embedding your safe in concrete with deep foundations. It doesn't affect the thickness or quality of your safe.
