So you're talking about the reverse Bear Traps.
Well, it's just how the mechanics work. Devs made it where if you run to a gate with an active Trap, it will kill you. Tapping M1 on a hatch is quick, if you made it trigger on the hatch were would be the trigger area?
I am also pretty certain that the Devs made the hatch a counter for this excact situation, otherwise the Survivor would be dead if he had to work around a Timer while another Timer is ticking down.
There's a kill zone for exit gates. It's much harder to do that for hatch. Since EGC came after the RBT, the above comment's second half doesn't apply as a reason. Hatch should really only come into play if all other survivors are dead, but originating from a time when escaping through the gates after all gens were done as a solo survivor appeared much more difficult, the hatch opens when all other survivors have left. Either that or it's just because it was coded early on that the game only checks when players are gone and not "dead" for hatch conditions (which it still does).
