Wider context matters

Two companies can advertise lockers with the same high quality lock, but one might still be better to use

• if one company can’t prove they are actually using the high quality lock
• if one company acts as a middleman, doing the locking/unlocking for you
• if one company watches everything you do before and after using the locker, allowing them to infer what you are using it for

Even if we specifically talk about security, one is better than the other.
