It’s the same principle as the pool fence. You can’t guarantee that a gate will be left locked at all times but you CAN guarantee that it won’t be locked if there is no lock. We have to allow for basic human needs (like fresh air and window cleaning) and we have to let people make their own mistakes. Also, this is a discussion document so there’s still time to put up an argument against locking (rather than limiting) devices.
