I'm not fighting anybody. I'm stating my opinion, which happens to be different than his. Isn't this the purpose of a forum?

The context here is the fridge sending you online messages about the open door.

Base open door alarm is just an annoying beeper that goes on some 30-45 seconds into the door being opened.
