This is why house doors open in but business doors have to open out - if there’s a crush against a fire door it opens.
You even see this in aviation, where everything is checkisted; the pilots will first stabilize the plane in an emergency and then run the checklist. And small plane that operate unexpectedly are always higher in crash rates.
This doesn't work for normal people because normal people don't drill non-normal events until the response is instinctive.
But you should NEVER design a system that requires normal people to drill non-normal events; even planes have been redesigned to "fix" problems where the pilot had to do something unintuitive or unexpected, because eventually it WILL catch up to you.
I learned in the small car from the same brand as my father's larger car, so that the controls are in the same place, the symbols on stuff are identical, all that was different once I have a license and borrow dad's car is it's longer and has more power.
It also probably shouldn't be legal for me to drive today, but it is. I learned 25 years ago, and I haven't driven anything in over a decade, so a rational system would say nah, you're too rusty, get a refresher course, but there's no mandate for that.
