I don’t get the counterintuitive thing if they know (and they should by now if they’ve been paying any attention at all) that holding the button for 5 seconds will stop the madness. Or shall we say: Put an end to the “panic situation”.
Seems a little like me being in a “panic situation” while flying along and the engine dies because a fuel tank ran dry. I don’t think switching the fuel selector to a tank with fuel in it would be counterintuitive at all.
But then... Maybe that's just me.

Thank God, these people aren't pilots.
