What if Tesla just creates an option to add physical controls - buttons, switches etc.? After watching the Edmunds youtube video, it's a bit absurd honestly. You adjust cruise control speed by using the touchscreen? Come on. Ridiculous. (I assume you can map it to the steering wheel controls but you might want those for something else).
This whole thing makes no sense. Strategically having sufficient dedicated controls for things you need to adjust by touch while driving, without looking to the touchscreen, is required - it's not opinion or preference. It's not fully autonomous yet so that's an irrelevant argument. There's no reason to have done it this way and it goes against the general Tesla strategy - do stuff that makes sense.
Anyway thought I'd ask who would buy the option if it existed - to add some amount of controls to supplement the existing touchscreen. Having different and more controls on steering wheel, etc., is something seen generally on different car trim levels anyway - so this would be in a way normal to have that option.
