If you think about it, if the resurrected Christ walked through the walls, why was it necessary to move the stone at the tomb? For effect? As a proof? Imagine that! Wouldn't just Christ's appearance before the apostles be proof enough? The empty tomb with the stone rolled away was a witness to the rest of the world.

the stone
It is also a literal fulfillment of Isaiah 8:14f cf Ro 9:33

The empty tomb with the stone rolled away was a witness to the rest of the world Seems trivial if not naive. Wouldn't his appearance be sufficient proof to the rest of the world (including the Sanhedrin)? Anyone could have rolled away the stone; a resurrected Jesus with his wounds still intact would be convincing beyond any doubt.
