^^This is not accurate.
I originally brought it up as I was curious if FAs on airlines other than the ones I've flown actually TELL (as in verbally, from their mouths, through the air to my ears as the definition has been known to exist since the beginning of time) passengers specific instructions about what to do with the door in an exit row in an emergency.
