The manual password is different because the only way around it is brute force, which is near impossible given the time frame between when the manual is released and when the password is released.

I considered this, but maybe if the locking part was hidden inside the box it would discourage cutting the lock. A barrel-type lock might work if those exist with combos, as the only way to break in would be drilling, and that would run a high risk of damaging something in the kit. The possibility of damaging kit contents and reusability of the tote should discourage cutting the plastic.
