Have to disagree with you on these two. An improper lock of a small joint won't stop them, true, but as taught in chin na and some forms of jujutsu you can actually lock the entire limb by locking a finger or wrist. I deal with shoplifters on a regular basis, many in some of the worser parts of the city who are simply stealing the stuff to sell on the streets to get more drugs. Many of these guys don't want to go easy and may be higher than a kite and often get their fighting blood up. Small joint manipulation has helped me control more than a few of them, as the main thing you want to do is NOT break the bone. Why? Once it breaks, yeah, they have a broken bone but then you no longer have a hold on them and the pain is not as great. You need to bend/twist it to almost the brink of breakage, which in turn will help lock out the limb.
