But you left out, or I didn't see, two of the biggies:
1) If there is a fire the vast majority of the people will seek to get out the way they got in. After action reports show that it is very common for people to move away from nearby exits, even though they were clearly marked and preferentially move toward the entrance they used to enter the building.


There was a lot to read and easy to overlook. I could have emphasized it a bit more - see the recommendations.
