It's going to assume you want to close the frunk and maybe something like a bag is getting in the way, which would make it close harder.

What's next? When you press the brake padel the car is going to assume that you want to slow down? Wow, that's some fantastic wisdom from Tesla!

By tesla's logic, it'll assume that you want to slow down, and will speed up to make you slow down faster

The harder you push the pedal the more you want your speed to decrease, obviously. But if you push it hard enough then the decrease from your current speed to Zero is no longer enough. So now the engineers need to decide if you'll speed up first, so the decrease from the new speed to zero is larger, or if it'll slam you into reverse instead.
