Well, I have installed Shortcutd too, so it's not as simple as you described it. The thief has just to accidentally pass his hands above the proximity sensor, or press the camera button, in order to call the background and seeing the big X for closing the alarm.

So maybe yes, if you have not Shortcutd the thief has only a 10/20% probabilities to know how to stop the alarm, but if you have it, it's almost sure that you will never see your N900 again.

And no, that is not ok.
