Do you actually have
any data to back up your assertion that the industrial process used to cut through McMaster-Carr Security 'cut resistant' chain when it's cut to length at their warehouse takes 'very little effort', or did you just make that up?
Cutting through a quality U lock will require a much larger set of bolt cutters and much more effort.
Well, cutting a 17mm heat treated alloy steel ulock will be harder than cutting an 8mm heat treated alloy steel chain, but that doesn't mean the heat treated alloy steel in the 'cut resistant' security chain has no more resistance to being cut than any regular old chain out there, nor does it mean that
19mm heat treated alloy steel security chain can be cut
with very little effort just because the heat treated alloy steel is in chain form factor rather than in a ulock.
