It isn't the phrase "trust me", it's what he stated after those words
Trust me, if everyone uses them properly, they do work,"
Here's what I think. First, it is safe to assume that probably everyone who is on the ship has experience with using an elevator. But they do not have experience with using THIS KIND of elevator. The problem as I see it is going to be the learning curve. It will take a few days for most people to get the hang of this new technology. So on a 7 day cruise, the first two or three days will have a lot of frustrated people trying to figure out how to work them. It'll get better by day 4, but then it starts up all over again with the next sailing.
Unless and until this elevator technology gains wide usage in the real world so people can learn to incorporate it into their daily lives, I don't think it will have an overall positive reception.
