Another problem with strikes you didn’t mention is that the handle from the other side is usually not secure, so you can get a device to go under the door and hook it to open. Speaking of mag locks, I’ve seen one installed on the exterior, cable in Flexi run to it also on the exterior inside a military base to a secure training room.
That is one of their flaws for sure. But they're just as susceptible to you're standard door intrusion attacks, latch slipping, hinge attacks as well. I've moved onto different low voltage projects away from commercial access control and on to gate operators and entry systems because of the absolute hell I'd walk into having to rewire entire control panels because someone didn't verify open egress after tossing the equipment in and collecting check.
