It is in most. There are a few makes/models where crash detection can disable them, but we’ve had ‘dumb’ child locks for decades, and no one cared! So it’s just irrational hate of Tesla driving this.
I’m pretty sure that’s normal with a lot of cars. Or at least the part you pull or push doesn’t engage with the latch unless the lock is disabled, which has the same effect even if there’s a mechanical key hole.

Well it wasn’t historically a problem because doors still had handles on the outside. Then tesla had to “innovate” on that.
Have you never opened a Tesla door? It’s not hard. It’s a handle - you just have to push in the one side first.
They are electrically actuated instead of physically connected to the latch. They have a habit of not operating after a crash. It’s a whole thing.
