The problem with mortice locks is that

(a) they're a complete faff to lock and unlock, needing a key even from
inside

Oh come ON! It's nbot rocket science and you don't need to be Mr Universe!

(b) the keys are the size of Tunisia

Don't be silly.

(c) If you have a fire in the night, your children will end up as frazzled
blackened balls pressed against the locked door

No such luck.
