If your bag has an exposed zipper, then a malicious actor doesn't need to pick your lock, they can just get through the zipper with a pen usually, and they can still zip it up after.

I guess it could be better to not lock it at all and use some other form of tamper detection?

Or I guess I could just travel with a pelican case so they have to defeat the lock to get in.

Be sure to put a flare gun in it. Then you’re actually allowed/required to lock it.
