If you're going to have the car for 10+ years, why in the world would it be a problem to learn the system in it?

  a) many people dont' keep cars that long b) the system is probably poorly designed and implemented

    You have no argument here. the average loan for a new vehicle is 3-5 years. Is it your belief that you're likely to default on that loan, therefore why would you learn the system in your vehicle? The average ownership length for a car is roughly 6 years. Taking the time to learn a system that you'll have for anywhere from 3-6 years is completely reasonable. This is the very definition of #firstworldproblems.

      I don't think it's that hard to understand. People want cars to be compatible with their phone system because it's easier and it works better. You certainly can learn the lousy interface in your car and there is some value in that, but it isn't hard to understand why the sales & marketing team is emphasizing that you don't have to (whether or not true in practice).
