Good for a winch car or something like you don't have to go around it to get in or out.

I can see a small advantage in certain times but the heart ache when u damage them would be worse. Not just bolting on some new ones

Damage one bad enough so that it won't close and its a big problem.

Normal door will be pushed shut when brushing a tree (moving forwards), whereas this would either jam against tree or rip off.

While suicide doors may look cool they are a pain in the @rse to get in and out of, even if you thinking about for a winch truck....
