There's never a good enough reason to ride in the door zone. Well if you really really have no choice, do it at 10mph or less. That's why we have ebikes though, so you can take the lane at a reasonable car-like speed. On the 40+mph roads, there really aren't any parked cars, at least around here.
What annoys me a lot is cars flying up behind me as I'm approaching a red light, usually with traffic stacked up. I try to coast for 5 or so seconds, so I'm not going full speed, and this improves efficiency a fair bit. I just have a good laugh as I watch them go 50 feet, then nowhere, and I either pass in the bike lane or jump on the sidewalk if I need to. It's funny how they must pass you, no matter how little distance they may gain for few seconds.
