Could be that the cable's sheath retaining clip is broken or not locked in.
It's really easy to pull the door card and check things out.

BTW, the answer to the topic is "yes".
If the battery became disconnected, you'd be locked in.

I think they are showing above the lock is mechanical, not electrical. If the cable to the lock fails, yes, could be problems.

God bless advanced technology! (or: why AI will kill us all)
