Are you serious? Did you really look at these photos?
To exploit this weakness the cuff *has* to be double locked!
Preferably double locked with the bow swinging freely
and then one would try to close the cuff forcibly.
If single locked beyond the first three ratchet positions
and then double locked, the mechanism is less vulnerable
as the torque exerted on this die cast piece is much smaller.

P.S. If #13 or #15 are open, in hammering on the ratchet
one probably could break this die cast piece
regardless of the position of the double lock.
