Sure, it happens, but most of the time it’ doesnt. Most people will never have that happen in their lives.

An appropriate response to that fear might be using an intercom or chain lock or video doorbell to find out, or get a dog, or choose not to answer the door

I just don't answer the door.

Not because I'm afraid of boogeymen, or anything, but because I just can't be arsed. No one I want to talk to would try knocking or ringing my doorbell. It's inevitably some tiresome asshole selling something, or pestering me about their whackadoo specialty religion, or begging for something, or it's the cops with the wrong address.

You're 100% correct. I was just replying to the "Yeah, a malicious person is going to bother ringing a doorbell" part of their comment that implied it never happens.
