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?

sigh

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.
