Power Tailgate Question

I just picked up my Platinum yesterday, there is a lot to learn!

I noticed that even with the doors locked, if you push the release button on the tailgate, it will open. I would think with the doors locked, the tailgate would not open either. Is everybodys like this?

I'm not talking about the release button on the keyfob, I'm talking about the release button on the tailgate. I would think it would be "locked" like the doors.

Yes, if the key fob is in my pocket.
