I suspect much of the violent offence is in large part due to the ridiculous claims lock manufacturers make.
If one is commuting and your bike spends all work day locked up, there is simply no excuse not to get a lock that requires an angle grinder and several minutes of effort to defeat (bike thieves don't pick locks). These can be had for significantly less than this Ottolock and provide as good as you can get bike security.
In your application I'd use something like the Ottolock but with eyes wide open that this is a tin snip and seconds from being gone.
