I hate how minimalism went from “don’t add fluff” to “remove features”.
That’s the case here. What is wrong with physical buttons? Acc. to the text, the car owner is adding ones “that provide quicker access to some of the vehicle’s essential functions”. So why is Tesla removing them on first place?
I don’t even own a car for at least a decade, mind you, but you see this cancer elsewhere. It’s [early? current?] GNOME 3 with stuff like this, this and this, it’s my microwaves having 10min/1min/10s buttons instead of a 0-9 numeric pad, analogical clock faces without even hour marks… on the surface this shit might look like “LESS IS BERRUR LOL LMAO”, but it’s actually adding complexity to what matters, the interaction between the user/owner and the program/object.
