Jon Most keys are brass or aluminum. ~1/2 or less of the strength of stainless. Plus anybody that's machined stainless will tell you that it's gonna do bad things to the steel cutter in most key machines.

They do it in code to make duplication more difficult for the people unintended to be doing the duplicating. Dealers have a book that translates the codes for the keys into meaningful numbers to cut the keys by. As far as punching them, I would think most dealers of any size would have the hand held cutting tool that does nip out the keys.
