OT: Locking Gas Caps

I heard on the radio that some places are sold out on locking gas
caps.
I suppose due to the rise of gas theft.
I mentioned locking gas caps to a mechanic.
To my surprise, he said that most vehicles don't need a locking gas
cap due to the presence of a check ball that makes siphoning very
difficult.
True??
If so, people could be just wasting their money on locking gas caps.
In addition, he said that if the gas tank needs to be drained for
service work, it's done from underneath the vehicle.
Later on, I wish I asked if thefts can unbolt the gas tank and run off
with it!
