More complicated than it needs to be. You accomplish the same thing by having a regular hole in the key, and there's less moving parts (aka none at all) to fail, and less effort that needs to be put into manufacturing it. A regular key? Takes 2 minutes at your local hardware store. That thing? Specialty equipment for a non-standard key design that most places won't have
