And a lot of places, like hotels, they handle things such as luggage... definitely not just standing there all day just for a door, that's ridiculous.

I thought bellhops do that, that's not just a "doorman"
Indeed. Turns out the doorman is doing a number of additional tasks, not just opening the door, and thus cannot be identically replaced with an automatic door opener. And here we are, right back at the start of the conversation.
I'm talking about people whose job is literally to stand there and greet people and open doors. In some places if they're provided a chair or stool to rest on it's considered less "posh" like wtf
You're confusing the word "doorman" to include other random unrelated jobs, like expecting the postman to also deliver your milk and then complaining that email doesn't solve that problem.
(I guess if you ordered milk online, he could, but that's not the meaning regular people assume when saying "postman")
