The handles on the model 3 and Y are absolutely different than those of other vehicles. On the inside there are mechanical handles in the front only, and it’s fairly easy to be unaware of their existence, they blend in too well. If the power fails in the low voltage system then the only way to get the rear doors open from the inside is to lift up the liner in the door pocket and pull on a small steel cable that unlatches the door.
I have one, I know exactly how it works. Yes the back door system is stupid, but no worse for safety than any car with the kid locks on the doors.
The emergency internal handles in the front are exactly where you think they’d be. If I don’t tell people how to open the door with the button, they pull the emergency handle. Of course if someone is used to pushing the button and it doesn’t work, they might panic, and forget but if they’re unconscious it hardly matters.
You realize you are just trying to convince yourself you have a safe car, right? I know you need a big ego to want a tesla in the first place, but its okay to say you learned new information and want to change your mind.

I have two kids and have never needed child locks. How distracted while driving your kids are you?

But then they wouldn’t be… CannonFodder.
