My Mom had a washer that did this. I told her to unplug it to soak overnight. That worked, but she hated that thing, sold it, and took my sister's older washer that didn't have any "we know better than you do" features.
I do this if I really need to soak something but the cycle after I turn back it on is weird because it’s not “resuming”
Many washers will pause if the lid is open.
Most washers outside of Asia are horizontal, not vertical, so there is no lid to open. And the ancient tech ones in North America that load from the top don't have any electronics and are already immune.
The top load washers in the US all have lid locks and safety switches with anti-tamper devices to prevent you from disabling the lock mechanism.
