We are now in an era where physical things are expensive. Making a physical knob that actuates things requires machine tools, skilled labour and standardised parts. Compared to a digital widget which eventually can just be coded by an LLM, we are never going back to physical controls unless safety demands it.

Do people actually prefer touch screens? I know I don't. I won't buy a car unless every function I need while driving is on a physical knob or button. If I have to press on a touch screen every time I start the car, this test drive is over.
