The thought of people getting into a multi ton vehicle capable of going a hundred miles per hour, and not reading the manual is absurd to me, this applies to all cars.

I went through flight school in my mid-teens. The layout of aircraft controls are pretty tightly regulated per the FARs, things like the shape, texture and color of the throttle lever is set by federal law so that pilots don't mistake it for another by look or feel. Because "I'm used to the throttle being black and the mixture being red, but in this plane..." is a terrible reason to slam into a neighborhood.

I do not think it's morally right for the fail safe door latch to be different from the normally used door latch. If you are panicked because of an emergency or something, the way you're used to opening the door should be the way the door opens. You should not have to think "The car is on fire! I gotta get out! And because this is a fancy car that thinks electronic mechanisms are luxurious, the normal door release is not functioning in the event of an electrical failure. Fortunately I remember where the emergency latch is and how to use it."
