> having buttons and knobs just because it's the norm What about having buttons and knobs just because you can use them without looking at them? Because that's what makes them extraordinarily useful when compared to a touchscreen. > remove every single tactile element. have convenient touch interface. have usable voice control. Just to imagine out loud: you want to change lanes. In order to activate your indicator, you have to look down at a touchscreen, or say "Car, activate left indicator!". I struggle to see how either of those could be an improvement on the current controls. Now I come to think of it, the wheel is a tactile element! Maybe we could implement a left-to-right slider on a touchscreen you could use to control car direction? I get that you're not actually advocating for that, but I also don't think we really need to test out the hypothesis to know that it's a bad idea.
