The manual door release can be tricky to find unless you've combed through your car's owner's manual.

Absolute horseshit. Practically every person who gets out of my car for the first time goes for the manual handle. I have to make a point to tell them to use the button.

  So the design is flawed. 20 year old cars can drop the window slightly when the door is opened, why can't a semi-self-driving car do it?

  It does. If there is no power or somebody swings the door open super fast it can damage/break the window. Generally it's fine.
  
  Not even a Tesla or Elon guy but wow people just really enjoy shitting on these cars lol. That 20 year old car that drops the window doesn't drop it when the battery is dead either. Flawed design man, Teslas are ass, Elon is Satan 🤷‍♂️
  
  Not when the battery is dead dipshit
- came here to say this exact thing. I'm paranoid new people will pull the manual exit over the button, becauseit can potentially damage the frame.(which is dumb for other reasons).
- What? Do you mean that there's a button to open the door in Teslas? Wasn't that standardized? And it is hard to find? They must be retarded.

  Tesla's have a button to electronically open the door and immediately below it they have a traditional pull handle to open the door.
  
  Oh well, no wonder people didn't notice it.
