"The fact that the door is unlocked has little legal significance in this scenario."
It most certainly does. It happened to me and what's more is I was advised by lawyers to always keep the door locked for any stranger calling.
Regarding Miranda, that is the ruling based on the 5th Amendment.
I humbly disagree with you though. Good fences make good neighbors. Locked doors makes a safe house. Never invite strangers in your home, period. A stranger is still a stranger even if that person has a badge or wearing a halo. I have my my personal experience supporting it.
