Built-in gate blockers

Sorry, what's the point of these? With Kaneki's and Pinhead's built-in gate-blocking when using their power, you still won't be able to pick up a Survivor if they mess up in the gate. Are these supposed to be just fluff?

    It's as much fluff as Vecna's undergate; give the killer or survivor a false sense of victory.

    Only one that works is dog from houndmaster but she can be doged or if other survivor is near than the dog grab has no chance of success if that survivor frees the grabed one and go to exit line.

    Many killers have them but its just to create panic but it doesnt do anything because usualy almost in all cases the killers cooldown either from attack or special ability is so long so that survivor will still escape and the ones that had the power to get you hooks in gate area were nerfed.

    Panic only goes so far, until people consistently notice that it doesn't really matter whether you get hit by these powers or not (in the exit gates). I just find it strange - either have it where a Killer is able to pick up the Survivor if there are no body blockers, or just don't implement it at all.

    My guess: I suspect there are bugs associated with survivors leaving while still being within certain killers' animations, and the gate blocking is to ensure the two things cannot occur simultaneously.
