It may have made them more robust, but we will never really know and the regs state "A lightened door is defined as a door that has been modified in any way that affects its overall weight, including; removal of panelling, substitution of panelling, alteration or deletion of window regulators."
Clearly the doors had panelling substituted, alloy for whatever was on the inside, therefore the rule is clear. Side intrusion required. The owner may want to run how he feels, but like the rest he has no option, comply or don't run.
