Okay, so you're saying a house isn't a single entity, but its doors,
walls, etc. are individual targets. Thanks for the more or less official
version :)

Those were my thoughts, too, which is why I mentioned increasing in
barrier rating if houses were to be a single target. However, if they are
treated as consisting of a number of separate targets (say, each wall is
one), then this problem doesn't really exist.
