1) if they have already cut through your u-lock, why would the opt to cut the chain and not the disc lock?
2) have there ever been any reports of stolen chainrings? is that even an issue?
3) if loctite can secure your pedals, why not loctite the chainring? how are your saddle / bars / stem secured from these misc part thieves?
there may not be such a thing as overkill for locking, but when your locking method causes you other problems I think its time to consider what is really needed for your situation.
if you're worried about the space in the lock, you can upgrade the lock to one with less space to fill for around $10.
