This horrible touchscreen-only situation always reminded me of a similar fashion trend in the mid 80s... digital speedometers and "automatic" seatbelts.
Both looked great in a magazine, showroom, and the Knightrider TV show, but were suboptimal in real life.
Thankfully no one back then had the absurd idea to force them into every single car model, and eliminate choice for the next ten years.
