That's not really odd. The main reason why crossovers and SUVs sell so well is precisely because minivans with their sliding doors are not sexy. I would think there is a large segment of the market that would not buy any car with sliding doors.
On the other hand, falcon doors are "cool" compared to even conventional doors.
The goal was to beat conventional doors in practicality (although their are tradeoffs) while avoiding the minivan problem.
It's entirely possible that you are right and that too many in the target audience would have frowned over sliding doors.
Time for a new poll. Stay tuned.
Edited to add: Here it is Which door style would you prefer, given what we know today
