1. a very small open window e.g. bathroom window
2. an unlocked window in flats higher than 1st floor
3. the ceiling in flats and terraced houses as they got into the roof space

If the lock is a euro cylinder one just snaps the cylinder for example. SS312 Euro cylinder? Lump hammer.
In the end, people do not pick locks in general, they smash windows & break doors.

Don't need him blundering on witlessly, not while Whorty can still recall his own login details. No sense in overloading the dimwit portfolio.

Pricey at 'north of $300'? That's a pittance. I bet many dodgy people have access to a key cutting machine.
