I remember getting locked out of my 2003 Grand Marquis, and then watching the locksmith open it in about 5 seconds. It was then I realized that my door locks are a very minimal intrusion deterrent.

That being said, I imagine it's quite more difficult to get back into that vehicle.

Locks are there to keep honest people out. Any lock can be opened given time

Nah most locks do their job at keeping the average car thief or other assholes out, the locksmiths have lost of experience and special tools that aforementioned people don't have.

It's not that hard and the tools can be bought at any auto store. It's the factory alarm that is supposed to be the deterrent

Shure but it keeps the bad guys out in most cases.

Tbf thieves don't use these bags, they are perfectly happy to use a hammer. People like the bags for the legal entries because of the whole "not damaging the car" thing most customers of locksmiths are into.
