Nonono. There's no excuse to not make a door work mechanically. It should be easy and obvious to open from the inside. Why shit like this is even allowed is completely beyond me.
Ok, what about passengers?
What about kids? Should they start go right from ABC's to the Tesla Model Y 2020-2021 Owners Manual?
What if it's a rental, do you sit down and read the owners manual in the parking lot of the rental place before you go anywhere?
Door handles have basically been an industry standard as they are (mechanical) because of form and function. They just work, there is zero reason that door handles need to be electric and have a manual emergency release. The only reason I could grasp from the smallest straws was aesthetics: they look cooler/go better with the car.
Lamborghinis and Ferrari's have mechanical door handles, if it's good enough for them, it should be good enough for Musk.
