What is the benefit of having a key, other than the fact that getting caught picklocking is a crime.

I'd like to tell the short tale, I accidentally; ended up in a fight with a guard and his buddies. They all were much higher ranked than myself. But I was very lucky, appearing from nowhere was a Dragon. So initially I was under attack by a dragon and three guards, so I dived for cover in a small hole in the banks of the river. The dragon ended the lifes of the guards, so I eventually slayed the Dragon.

Nevertheless the dragon did kill a few people, and I stole their housekeys. I was interested in understanding what useful purpose they serve?

As far as I know, they're there for immersion and ease of access. For people who suck at Lock-picking, having the key is a decent win. For people who'd like to really immerse themselves in the Skyrim universe... well, every lock should have a key, right?

Fair point - I was merely interested to know if there is more to it however. Would seem not so. You are right - every lock should have a key. I didn't know if there was something more to them.
