They’re like that in this apartment we’re renting and I keep seeing them elsewhere. I don’t get it.

Sockets with flaps are code in the us too and have been for a while.
Isn’t the USA 2 pin for many outlets, though. So there is no earthing. The uk socket requires the earth connection to be made by the longer earth pin on the plug before the flaps will open.
yes but you have to open both shutters at the same time. The ground doesn’t have a shutter.
No, because the ground carries no voltage. It’s literally connected to the ground to route any electricity away from the appliance in case a person touches it.
