Side views folding in at speed

[big jake]

So I was driving down the highway in my 2021 and trying to adjust the side view mirror angle. Instead of clicking the driver side mirror selection button bellow the directional pad I instead accidentally clicked the side view fold button above. To my surprise at highway speeds they folded in and stayed that way. A second push of the button extended them back to normal. Is it just me or does this seam odd/a mistake?

Mistake? Because the button that is supposed to fold them in, folded them in? To me that's working as intended.

Hahaha when you put it that way…

It just seams that at a certain speed it would not be a good idea to do that.

You never know when you will have to go through a 8 ft. garage door at 75 MPH.

There is that, but I find the benefit in aerodynamics to be the big draw. Besides, BLIS is still working, so you still know if someone's in your blind spot.

Folded in mirrors make the truck more aerodynamic. Thus increasing the chances of beating that elusive Hyundai.

Act like your flying an F-14 going supersonic.

I fold mine in on a bridge while driving because it's so narrow. My worry isn't fitting myself, it's the oncoming traffic that tends to veer toward the centerline in their own fear.
