>but that hasn't prompted us to play security theater around every building entrance
Um, then you're just not going into any secured buildings. There are places where you must always have a badge showing. Or, you must always be with another known member of staff keeping an eye on you. Often these places have locks on every door with access levels.
It really just sounds like you're a bit less experienced with security in this case.
Notice how none of that is a cumbersome user experience. I put a badge on my person and maybe have someone walk beside me and that's it. I notably do not have to unlock the same door over and over again by first entering a password and then entering a pin and then touching my hardware key. Again and again,.. and again.
As for personal experience, the most secure facility I entered so far was a data center. It was not annoying to get in and out of that either, despite a whole lot of security.
