Maybe you didn't comprehend it? The close force attempt increases with each unsuccessful attempt at closing. That way seems better than it eventually not working at all a few years down the line as all the electronics get more jankety be cause something gets a bit bent or worn out and it always detects a small amount of resistance so it quits closing all together.

Nobody wants to discuss the logic involved with having to open the door and then close it again for it to attempt to close harder and why that isn't the dire safety hazard that people are trying to make it out to be. These people are the reason why we have to have "no smoking" signs at gas pumps because apparently they'd leave their hand in the door after attempting to close it 3 or 4 times.
