well , if one of the door is opened, and you continued, a pax was suck out of the cabin in the air and . after this happened, someone will ask you why didn`t you abort. i know the door open light most of the time is a faulse alert, but what if it`s really opened, do you think it`s a great risk
What if it was just a faulty microswitch that you aborted for, went off the runway for and the aircraft broke appart catching fire and killing 50 people.

Last time I checked the door opened toward the front of the aircraft. I'm pretty shure the 80+ knots of wind will keep it from opening enough for a passenger that is strapped to it's seat to fall out of.
