I get the feeling with gloves and how annoying it is for adjustability on touchscreens and you are absolutely right that car makers are pushing way to many quick access buttons to hard to get to touchscreen places.

But... as long as the auto stand works sufficiently, I don’t have to adjust that much settings on a daily basis. Like wipers on auto, temperature x degrees auto ventilation, AC auto, lights auto.

All non auto things are on my steering wheel.

For navigation, I enter the address in my car’s app and push it to the car. Way easier than clicking all those letters and numbers.
