Again in that case the newness of different tech isn’t actually the real problem and feels like the wrong critique. What’s problematic is trajectory and intent with things like planned obsolescence, subscriptions, ongoing costs in repairs after initial sale. I’d say that a new interface is barely even an issue compared with that.. although fwiw, yes, I prefer buttons rather than touch screens.

I'm not equating new = bad. I'm saying new = good is wrong. And based on your last sentence, you do think car manufacturers all switching over to all touch controls was a problem. Almost everyone prefers buttons to touch screens, that's my point. The better more popular option was rejected because of a false premise, or false belief.
