I totally agree. not only are you right about all of the above, but the 
doors open at just the right speed. i feel that mechanical assistance, such 
as hydraulics, would only make the doors open slower, or at a dangerously 
fast rate. the only thing to gain by having hydraulic doors is the 
impressiveness of being able to open your doors AND close them from inside a 
building....
