You can see an image of it here [1]. The indicators are on the left inside of the wheel. Now you can imagine depending on how far you are locking your wheel, how difficult it might be to find those buttons.
It's quite possibly the most stupid degradation of user experience I have ever seen in a car - and the sole reason I won't be buying a Model 3 when I'm next in the market for a new car.

- consp 3y agoI'd say anything more than 20 degrees and you have to let lose of your steering wheel to turn on the opposite indicator. Also doesn't work with the recommended method for thurning the steering wheel here as it's designed to keep you hands at the 10/2 (or 9/3) hour positions. Unless you lock 180 degrees and not forget the buttons are reversed.

With that the expensive problem of designing, procuring and producing a fair complex and critical part stopped being a problem.
