As I read the thread, I'm not sure anyone placed blame on the Engineer.
Some folks merely expressed some differences in their operations which may have been as a result of design changes.
The OP even states it was a "silly mistake", so I believe he did own it. Isn't it nice that he shared the experience so others don't do the same thing?
Here are some pics of my 2017 23IKSS. As you can see from the first pic, the awning should not be open or closed with the door fully open.
However in the 2nd pic you will see when the door is half open there is awning clearance. That supports my memory from last season on standing in the doorway to close the awning.
Good Luck and thank for sharing your story. That's how we all learn and get smarter.

P.S. However while we are on the subject of engineering I wonder how much it would cost to put in a safety sensor similar to automatic car doors so when it feels resistance, it will stop and re-open?
While we are at it how about a wind sensor similar to the awning on my house? When the wind hits a specified MPH, the awning closes for safety.
Ok, I probably just added $500 to the cost of the camper... Maybe these should just be user mods.
