To answer your question why the Puddle slime wasnt used as a lock...

The plort it self is too FRAGILE since its made out of water. They didnt really seem to have existed before and only became what we see now when Hobson owned the ranch.

Besides, the true purpose of the Ruins is unknown to us but known to those who inhabited it and Hobson (Mentioned in his entries in the ruins).
