The number of people who really don't (and probably don't want to) understand modern normal lift controls is mindboggling to me.

The lifts here are advanced in the sense that if you called one for going up, and someone enters with you and manages to press a downwards floor first, it still goes up. It also clearly shows on the outside that it wants to go up, like you ordered it to.

It's great, but it seems to be too complex for most people.

I was disappointed to see they're tearing down the Landbrukets hus building in Oslo because that was home to one of the only known Paternoster lifts in Norway. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paternoster_lift

And of course, @tomscott once did a video about them. https://youtu.be/YgJBD1wf-YQ?si=EIcP3qZcmp67Ke8S
