Yeah, that’s the problem when we start arguing with analogies. Things can get derailed easily. Mea culpa.

the day you get robbed, it will absolutely make a difference for whoever insure your house and its content.
If someone around here takes something, they needed it more than I did. I live way out in an unincorporated township. People aren't inclined to steal when they know I'd just help them out if they need me to.
It's pretty great to live here. The only crime in my area is growing weed and that's now legal.
Of course, this isn't something I suggest you do. It's certainly not practical for most people. I mention it only to show that there are varied security needs. On this particular subject, my credit has been frozen since the OPM breech.
