I believe the extraction ships have always been waiting for the Tenno to make their escape at the extraction point. Who is to say how long the ship has been there. The ship is designed for its purpose. It is very likely that it does have a mechanism that simply...makes a door for the Tenno to step through. A cutting tool of some sort.

I would rather sacrifice a little mobility in my escape craft over losing the ability to tell it when to come and collect me after the close of a mission. I highly doubt the ship is either sentient or omniscient. In any case, most extractions take place in areas suited to the craft. The calling card of the ninja is silence and subtlety. Although most missions in Warframe do not end that way, this ship was designed to come and go with no difficulties. Ninja disappear. They are not space cadets.

As to them fitting so close to one another. It may be an error in perspective on the game's part during the insertion of Tenno at drop zones. The ships may not be much bigger than the Warframes themselves.

Rotation will not do much good for close quarters if they are fixed in a streamlined position. But at a forty five degree angle, if they can rotate on X,Y, and Z axes ( Z, where they connect to the ship), and if they can do so independent of one another ( X and Y)... That is a completely different story. If they strike something, there is not much that can be done. However, for a skilled pilot ( or a powerful A.I.), they would be able to avoid most obstacles. The real trick is being intelligent enough not to venture into areas that put them at risk in the first place....
