What person with an automated cargo door closure mechanism has thought "stop protecting my stuff and just fucking close"?

I'll admit it annoys me when there's something in the way that keeps my door from latching and it reopens, but I'd rather have to clear the door and shut it manually than it force itself closed and jams the door or break my shit.

Its just like elevators, really. You put your hand in to stop the doors closing, they open again before touching your arm. Next time they close gently on your arm. Third time, the doors snap shut and the elevator ascends without further warning, resulting in traumatic amputation.
