Mechanical key based door lock cylinders are "Agentic AI" - they decide whether or not to allow the tumbler to turn based on the key (code) inserted. They're out there, in their billions around the world, deciding whether or not to allow people access through doorways WITHOUT HUMAN SUPERVISION!!! They can be easily hacked, they are not to be trusted!!! Furthermore, most key-lock users have no idea how the thing really works, they just stick the key in and try to turn it.
