While I understand this type of 'data theft' is possible I lack the requisite ego necessary to believe I'm important enough for them to be interested in me.

They're not interested in your tstat and its data: they are interested in your identity and your money. And any others to which you have access.
And the likeliehood of someone stealing your data is FAR higher than kicking in your door frankly. This area of personal security is HIGHLY underrated in the general public unfortunately. (There's another whole
thread there.)
