Most door handles just require you to push the handle down to open, with the exception of knob handles which require a twist. Plenty of times I’ve opened either variety of handle while carrying heavy objects by using my hip to depress the handle or by pushing my body against a knob and lowering myself to twist the knob. It is perfectly reasonable that an advanced robot would be able to figure out how to open a door without hands.

But have you ever seen handmaiden doing the same feat? No? Answer yourself, why?

Todd explains in Abyssal station zero that strongmen and handmaidens have different parts. Strongmen are just built different.
