That's just a worse UX.

So are touchscreens, especially in cars. Physical buttons are far better for the end user.

Imagine a future when all people know is blah blah to use computers, can't type, never see buttons, and barely read any more.

Now is it a bad UX?

(Before the Internet, the majority of people rarely read. And even now, most people don't read, they tiktok, they youtube.)



touchscreens aren't the dominant UX in cars, and I bet once Tesla has enough EV competition, it will get rid of its touchscreen too.


Sadly, they are becoming so.

The Ford Mustang, not the E, an ICE car, 2024, has 4? touchscreen clicks, to adjust the defrost.

There is no physical button for this.

Many new cars are this way now.
