We did this with several instruments: cello, trumpet, the human voice.” - Jóhann Jóhannsson

I'm thinking it was done purposely to show just how basic something like a sliding door is. It gives the aliens and their ships a bit of extra veritas; "hey, look, they use doors just like we do!" Sure, they've got super-advanced tech compared to ours, but sometimes simplicity rules; think of slings, bow & arrow, basic firearms, hammers, rakes... If a design works really well with minimal evolution needed, why bother going with (more error-prone, more expensive, possibly more massive/heavier, more potentially frightening to aliens) advanced tech?
