The US is very litigious country, where you not only allowed but encouraged to sue anyone for just about any possible reason, even its a result of their own negligence. There are people who would see getting locked inside a car in the same way most of us would look at a winning lottery ticket.
Frankly, I'm surprise this is even possible on a new BMW model but I would investigate it even further.
I'm not doubting you but there must be a way to open the door if someone becomes inadvertently trapped inside.

I thought they made it single pull on the G20 to unlock from the inside.
