Of course you are halfwit. They are called stiles.
There isnt enough of them on the bottom of a door to matter, ****wit.
So you now agree that there is end grain on the bottom of a door?
Not enough to matter and you can't see it with the door back in place
anyway.
The frame on a hollow door extends to the bottom. Have you actually
ever seen one?
You are an utter idiot.
You are a terminal ****wit.
If you plane across the end grain of the stiles it will break out and
look awful.
You don’t know that there is any stile
visible in the door the OP wants to do.
There is on all doors, halfwit.
And electric planes ain't the easiest of
things to get a perfect edge with either.
You don’t need a perfect edge with the bottom of the door.
Yes you do.
Even sillier than you usually manage.
You are in no position to call anyone silly.
I've designed and build an entire passive solar house on a
bare block of land, more than you have ever done, thanks.
I can only assume it didn't have any doors in it.
A sharp circular saw up against a bit of straight wood as a
guide will give a near perfect cut along and across the grain.

h.
The one thing with a plane on a door top/bottom is not to
come off the far edge, but to plane from both edges to the
middle, otherwise you can knock a lump off the corner.
I learnt that on door #1 !
After that it was fine.
He clearly didn’t have any problem with the stiles either.
Which part of "otherwise you can knock a lump off the corner" was too
complicated for you to grasp?
