Or get rid of the hedge and replace it with identical gates all round
the property to confuse the buggers.

I've seen gardens where the gates look precisely like the fence. And gates where you undo the latch and the other side opens. And gates that open outwards onto the pavement. Probably all just bad design rather than entrance-thwarting though.

Why?

It would look cool!

To make this an irrefutable argument, the execution must be flawless and
the plants be expertly maintained ever after.

Someone going to the trouble of making such a fancy contraption would clearly do both of those things.

Some one who lives under a nice bridge, in the dry, might not know
that container plants require regular watering.

Depends how big the container is. And an automatic waterer could be set up if you've bothered to create such a complicate hinge in the first place.

Someone who gets around a little and opens her/his eyes does need none
of both, neither the complication, nor the bridge, to notice, that high
standards do not necessarily come with much skill and devotion.
