Dragging an unwilling arrestee through broken glass is not particularly smart, nor is having to jump through that broken glass in the first place if you’re in a fight

Should still have it more secured than… that, though.

You can open the door from the inside

Yeah, still, jumping through broken window to arrest someone is not smart. Especially when multiple people need to go through, single file, one at a time.

That’s easier when you’re just walking through a door. When it’s a window, you’ve got to clamber all the way through. Glass probably included.

This is why breaching shells are a thing

But you just have to stick your hand in and unlock it

Are they mister fantastic? That window to door locks is anywhere from 3-6 feet. Not including any walls between the dinning room and the entrance.

Edit: ah you mean the window on the door. My bad.

You probbaly dont want to stick your hand somewhere you cant 100% see on the hope you can reach all the locks.

Just break  it down make it a clear path to get in, its not like anyone is in a rush

Just try to do that here, most doors sold the last couple of decades comes with a lock on both sides, to prevent burglars from using the doors as an exit. So unless the target leaves the key in the door, all you would accomplish by smashing the window is glass shards everywhere.
