Don't like E-brakes at all
Have yet to find where I need to open the door when backing or going forward but did find out my 2025 truck does apply the brakes, hate that.

Me launching a boat goes from backing in reverse until boat starts down the ramp, then I put trans in Drive and let it idle back. If I need to slow or stop, just push down on accelerator, no brakes needed until full stop

As far as the automatic parking brake. It does suck but it’s also convenient at the exact same time. If it senses the vehicle rolling, it locks automatically and touching the gas on most vehicles pulls it off automatically, so on a boat ramp you’ll never actually forget..
it does not engage on the boat ramp every time. Today I launched and retrieved. Worked at launch, not so good when stopped on ramp to retrieve.
