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?
