> A good design works with human nature, not against it. Although I agree, I was responding to the possibility of an elevator punishing behavior it didn't "like". Both what edw519 and I suggested would lead to "a whole office [...] following arbitrary elevator efficiency rules." It was intended to be a very tongue-in-cheek comment. I completely agree with both you and Jandy: a good elevator design would adjust itself to normal usage patterns and maximize efficiency within those constraints.
