Dont forget the windows are also laminated, so you can't just shatter them.

Sounds very safe..

That is true, but laminated side windows are not unique to Tesla. https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a28422725/car-windows-glass-aaa-unbreakable/

Do other unbreakable windows also come on vehicles where people routinely can't figure out how to open the door?

I think it's the combo of the two that's (preventable) problematic.
