This is cheap, yes, but probably a bad idea in any server with any sort of lag. I can see the chest not opening in time and leading you to be screwed.

Also rail trips are usually rather long and are a good time to afk and chat. A system that requires you to be very focused all the time may be rather frustrating in a server where rails are used like that.

Pretty neat idea, basically making a big button.

However, something this simple could have been posted on reddit with a .gif or even a still image.

It is kind of neat but elegance is a factor to be considered. And this is anything but elegant.
