It was very wise. Repairing or replacing a cash register is not cheap (and not having a cash register because the thief thought it was full so he stole it) makes it that much harder to reopen and get back to business. Anything a business owner can to reduce the potential damages is a good thing.

imagine stealing a cash register, then taking it home, breaking it open, and finding its empty

They usually break into the register while it’s still in the store. The shitty part is when they steal a vehicle, drive it through the front of the store to break into said empty cash register. Tens of thousands in damages for nothing.
