Do these commercials bother anyone else?

In every commercial, it has a man breaking down a door, and a woman home alone or home with a child. The alarm goes off the second the door is broken down, the man runs, and Broadview calls immediately, and the woman is right next to the phone.

Now, two of the commercials are presumably about potential robbers, I could see them getting scared off, unless they were there for something specific. One commercial is about a psycho ex-boyfriend, and one is about an ininvited party guest breaking back in (presumably to rape the single, attractive, female homeowner). More likely than not, the psycho ex-boyfriend would grab the woman, drag her off or kill her, and by the time the police showed up, she would be either gone or dead. The rapist could easily abduct the woman before the police arrive, or possibly even finish what he intended while the alarms are going off.

I guess to me, these commercials paint a false picture of security where every intruder is instantly scared off by an alarm. They also show a woman setting her alarm when she calls her son in for lunch on a summer day. I don't think that's realistic at all.
