It would be oddly satisfying, but each one feels like I’ve just locked myself in accidentally.

Fifth is somewhat useful. The rest are just nice looking.

I hate this.

All the doors slow down before latching, perfectly smoothly easing into a stop, the way your animation software interpolates keyframes.

Real latches need momentum to latch, it takes energy from the door to push the latching bolt. The door will slow when pushing the mechanism, but slam slightly with the leftover energy. The motion is the thing that looks most fake about this animation.
