I know this is apocryphal because I’ve never met a single engineer who’d identify that kind of human-centric solution.

Good engineers will think laterally about what they can do to make the product work better for the customer, and this is especially true they're in a tight technical spot. Everyone can get railroaded by their thought process and be blinded to the easy, simple solutions, but a good engineer is supposed to be aware of that. More likely, the lift engineer (or team) is only allowed to "make this lift 20% faster" and is told to stay in their lane when they suggest non-lift-based ideas. In all likelihood, the engineer is employed by a company in order to sell expensive lift upgrades, not mirrors or interior design services. And his boss has a target.
