High Security Lock for my house...

Ray, the rotating-disk-lock-equivalent to the key you described would be one that doesn't operate the return bar properly; I guess it could be done for the Protec, but I don't see why anyone would do that - to sabotage locks there are easier ways like glue.

but I don't see why anyone would do that

Plain and simple ignorance. To someone that doesn't understand how the lock works it might seem like a possible way to get in - forcing the lock to turn...

What I meant is a special key that cannot be removed, like the one Ray mentioned for pin tumbler locks, where the cutouts look like those of a saw - can be pushed in, but cannot be pulled out.

You could make the equivalent for Abloy locks, too, but it's difficult and nothing ignorant people would or could do.

Whoops, I thought we were still talking about screwdrivers...
My bad!

well for shear vandalism, theres nothing like a self tapping screw driven into the key hole, with the right selection of screws, it will do on any lock, so the whole idea of selling fear to get a customer to change his mind and buy what you have at your price, it dosent solve the problem for the customer. Anything can be screwed up by those determined to do it.
