Lifts

Suppose at the exact same millisecond, person in lift presses "close" while person outside lift presses "open" (why is there not a "close" button outside?), would the lift open or close?

I think it would open. But think about it. Person in the lift was there first, shouldn't he/she be allow to direct the lift? What if the person outside is like one of those villians in bad b-rated movies waiting to murder person inside? Ooooo...

I propose that all lifts should be controlled by person inside. Thank you.
