The phone would not come back to you anyway, so maybe t makes harder for theft to sell it, but eventually he will, but in cost of making it harder for users, by locking themselves out.

Let's compare it with gmail locking you out forever till you contact them for 5 mistakes. It sounds great, but it's not that practical, so it makes only pain for users.

There are other options that can be used i think.
