People are annoyed over the open doors because
1. Reactor door open = Reactor gets flooded as soon as the sub has even one breach.
And if the reactor is flooded, the power dies within a few moments.
And if the power is dead, pumps won't work to pump that water out. This is why batteries are important too, but it's best not to need them.
2. More water in the sub/more flooded space = Sub goes down faster
Sub going down faster means it hits the rocks harder
And it hitting the rocks harder means it will break more of its bottom hull, thus letting in more water and just being a generally bad deal for everyone. Sure, you'll sink either way if there's a flooded room. But you don't want to sink at full speed because physics. (Also, if you're carrying explosives on the sub sinking slowly is much prefered over hitting the rocks hard. Because some explosives will explode on a hard impact but are fine on a 'soft' impact.)
If the subs were designed better, the water wouldn't need open doors for a path to pumps, but that's a sub design thing and not a door thing
It's all about that water physics. If you close the doors, you're much safer than if they're left open. Especially if something big like a whole floor gets breached by something big
