My 2000 Celica has the same shift pattern, but rather than a lockout they just required extra effort to push over to R. And then of course the lovely in cabin beeping reminiscent of a cement truck backing up to alert the driver that they are not in 1st gear.
I don't really remember it causing major issues for people, but I know when I got in the FR-S I was stumped for a few seconds the first time I tried to put it in R. Felt really dumb after I pulled up on the lockout and it popped right over.
