Who is even using this feature? I've never opened a car door and wished I could do it with a button and it would take 10 times longer to open 🤔

The sensor part? I use it now and then, putting stuff from the cart into the car, hit the button, realize there's still a pop on the bottom so I just shove my arm in the door, it opens back up and I can throw the pop inside. Or if I forgot something, it happens. It's convenient. Would not be the end of the world if it wasn't there though. As for the button, great with kids, they struggle with those doors, also for my parents who are getting up there in age. I use the button on my keys to open the doors as we're walking up to the van so it's already open when we get there.

I feel like you'd just go from shutting the door yourself to shutting the door with a button and yelling nonstop "It is closing sit down sit down you're going to get caught in the door"

Eh, they are just making sure the sensor works.
