[*] although, not being a complete ****wit, I tend to check whether
there's a platform next to my train before I get off it. I recognise
that this isn't the principle on which present H&S legislation is
based.

I think it's more of a case of the danger of people falling out of a
packed train, if they were already pressed against the doors. They
wouldn't be expecting the doors to open on the tunnel side and wouldn't
be hanging on to the rail.
