One of my dad's favorite quotes was "Locks keep honest people out".

Even if you get a secure lock, are you also going to reinforce the door frame? If someone wants in they will get in. It just costs more if you want to make it harder to perform certain type of attacks against your home defense.

Not entirely true, the world is not that binary.

I can't remember where I read it, but a locked door is quite effective in preventing burglary as forcing the lock or crashing a window would greatly increase the chance being detected.

In my country the rate of burglaries is currently sadly rising and the police advices homeowners to invest into security measures like doors, enforced doors, enforced windows and cameras. They say that most burglars stop if it's not easy for them.

What is highly effective is you having locks and your neighbors having none.

Exactly, you could have every window and door barricaded up with steel and someone could still come along, take some tiles off the roof and get in easily that way.
