Ask a stupid question

Why do the doors on hobbit holes have the knob in the middle?

Well, we all know that it is easier to produce torque on an object such as a door if the force is applied at the furthest end of the point where such object is turning. That's why door knobs are close to the side of the door rather than in the middle. We all know this.... hobbits did not.

Why do hobbits eat so much?
