Most auto manufacturers design their cars so that they do not go into 1st very easily unless the car is stopped or going very slowly. The actual act of downshifting into 1st isn't bad when done correctly, but can be very expensive if you get it wrong.

1st is for starting to get the car rolling, all the other gears are for while it's in motion.

its probably designed like that so you wouldnt mis shift trying to go into 3rd and end up going into 1st going WOT @ 70mph and blowing your transmission
