I was recently watching a Tesla review on Youtube and the person reviewing it said that the door handles are designed to be as flush as possible. However, I’ve seen many examples of metal and other materials being laser cut where they sit so flush you can’t even see the cut. Why, as a design element or even from a practical standpoint, is this not utilized on things like vehicles more often?

Lasercutting takes time. For larger parts, stamping can get “good enough” far quicker.
Remember, most factories aren’t building just one car at a time. Time is money. Your more limited-production vehicles may take the time, but those vehicles tend to have a higher price tag than mass-production vehicles.
