My wife got used to our previous car, where I could both open and close the tailgate with the button on dash.
dude, when you see your significant other coming up with hands full of bags you're supposed to jump out and take them off her!! (at least I do)

and you want to make sure the bags are layed out correctly in the trunk so it doesn't block your rear view or become a missile if you brake suddenly... (things your significant may not keep in mind when off-loading)

i also like the idea of making sure the tailgate is completely locked and secure... (don't like leaving it to chance)

so, having to go out to confirm all this is well worth the effort!

just my .2cents
