Why security can do not good

[Frank_Stein]

^That really describes the problem.

People want or need things they can't get to, so they have to do things that are illegal to get them

Which is the point. The station is supposed to be somewhat frustrating with distrust and paranoia sewn about.

I think the intention was people would need to break into areas to loot them but be discrete about it, with Sec being the challenge for them.

But most people don't seem to want the inconvenience of not having what they want, being careful when acquiring it, and having to hide it if they get it.
