By definition, somebody has to have a most heavily locked door in the world.

In your analogy, it's clear to me that the US is better suited for that status than any of the other realistic candidates.

Someone has to have killed the most children as well, but that's hardly a justification one would care to rely on in court.

My point was not that no-one could justify an extreme of door locks but that I could not. If someone wants to try and justify an extreme of door locks, they're welcome to do so. But merely noting that we all do some thing, or that someone has to have done the most of it, is not such a justification even by analogy.
