This is the reason. If you have multiple or existing ones you have the ability to match the lock number to use the same key for existing and new locks. If you buy different items that require locks you buy locks with the same number straight away.

The Tiger gained the dubious distinction of being the first jet aircraft to shoot itself down. On 21 September 1956, during a test-firing of its 20 mm (0.79 in) cannons, pilot Tom Attridge fired two bursts midway through a shallow dive. As the trajectory of the cannon rounds decayed, they ultimately crossed paths with the Tiger as it continued its descent, disabling the aircraft and forcing Attridge to crash-land the aircraft; he survived with a broken leg and multiple broken vertebrae.

I think just saying that it hit itself due to its high speed doesn‘t really tell the whole story.

He did not invent the modern computer but contributed significantly to the modern theory of computation. There is no single person who invented the computer, it was a collective effort over decades, if not centuries, ref. Leibniz, Lovelace, Bool, von Neumann, Weizenbaum, and many more.

Is that any different from any other company that sells electronics, except perhaps Fairphone?
