Michael as a professional engineer (who likes Dennett's engineering analogies of evolution), I might extend your architects view ...
You might "really need" a fully glazed exterior doorway, but sorry you can't have one. We can ony fit doorways from the inside, there are no sky-hooks outside for us pragmatic engineers to build the architects dream. (Interestingly full-glazed buildings provide a lot of good architect / engineeering analogies I suspect.) We can only build from the inside out. We can look out but we can't do stuff out there without building cranes and that crane always has to poke through your glazing from an internal structure.
