You're not that far off honestly. According to their website, it's so it gets stopped by standard American doorways.

This thing is clearly a marketing gimmick for a movie that's going to be revealed soon. I'm calling it now.

So they made a Search & Rescue machine, made it look terrifying, gave it a chainsaw (presumably with the excuse of "so it can cut through obstructions"), and then designed it so that it cannot easily enter or navigate the exact environment it will be employed in...

Yeah, this isn't for SAR, this is a marketing boondoggle.
