If you unlock a lock, that's still a lock.

Also, in light of everything that is happening, is incredible that the top comment on this thread is about some minor semantic definitions.

Yeah but there was no lock; somebody put a box around the doorknob without anything holding it there, and somebody removed the box and opened the door.

There's nothing else to say about this. Also, your comment is nested even deeper within the same semantic squabbling, so it's odd that you think that it's a waste of time in light of more important things that you are also not talking about.

And it is still a lock if it was just hanging there and not actually locked as in this case.
