I get it, but you'd also be surpised the number of times you're working on both the inside and outside at the same time. For exmaple. The clutch master cylinder is both in the engine bay, and also behind the firewall under the dash. It's one of many. I'm not saying that raising a vehicle with the door open is logical, but I am saying it happens.
I think that still can do some damage but its sure reduces the chance of something bigger happening. Some sort of roller ball bearing could be nice too. Or just a spring arm, pushing the door a bit back out of reach. Or something more silly, having a sensor that beeps if you are too close to the box. In aviation, we have human factors as a subject, stuff like this is not supposed to happen but we are humans and shit happens sometimes anyways and you mby need to do things to stop it from happening or atleast warn you before it happends.
Keep the doors closed as you should when raising a vehicle. Lifts are for working on the outside, not the in, so keep the doors closed.

@@RedlineStands I hope you're not surprised to hear I've never damaged a customer's vehicle on a lift in 5 years.
..yea just keep the door closed

The answer is not being careless and paying attention to what you are doing, the plastic corner is just a bandaid on your sloppy work.
The question is preventing issues from happening despite meticulously making sure everything is good.
Murphys law.
@@hiko8822 In this case the issue is self inflicted, and shows a lack of meticulous planning of any kind.
God I love the internet and the nice folks on it.
