In what world would your 3-year-old be anywhere near these unwatched? If anything, they'd make you pay MORE attention when you're with your kids, as there is a bit of a false safety sense with normal elevators perhaps (see the handicapped dude in Korea who rammed the elevator doors with his motorized wheelchair and fell to his death, all because he missed his elevator). I'm all for the what-if sentiment but more so what if I didn't pay attention when I should vs. what if these elevators hurt me or someone I was responsible for.
