You can also adjust the ac from the steering wheel too. on the S you can setup the button on right side of the steering wheel to control whatever you want, without using the screen (there's one on the left side of the steering wheel for volume). On the S there's a screen behind the wheel, you can see it while looking out the front window to the road in your vision. So you can make it cooler or warmer right there. I agree though that using buttons that you learn the location of by muscle memory and don't have to look at are a bit safer. Now I can do it automatically without having to look around; that would be much harder the first few times.

And I am not sure if having reprogrammable buttons in a vehicle is a good idea. If I am recalling it correctly, ergonomics started as something to pay attention to when airplanes suddenly started crashing -- apparently a shape of some control has been changed, and pilots, using muscle memory, would do a wrong thing. Putting more reprogrammable buttons is better than nothing, I guess, but in the end it is trying to fix, with more technology, self-inflicted problems caused by using more advanced technology than was warranted in the first place. And judging from the number of comments I see on HN about Teslas lacking physical volume control, discoverability of the interface leaves much to be desired.
