All these things can be performed with a turning knob, a touch screen is not mandatory in a car

I have a flashlight with like 120 functions and ONE button. You’re fully correct. We do not need touchscreens for everything.

Exactly and for something more complex like a car, a dial knob like BMW's iDrive is just perfect.

And how many knobs do you want in your car? 50?

I have one and a few buttons in my car, BMW has the iDrive knob. So, one is enough.
