Next they will use the argument that "there is no demand for automatic gear selectors, as shown in the sales data" since there are no sales, and none is offered like they do with all the other price cutting or dumb design decisions they make, and people making arguments like this will defend them and make them feel validated in their poor implementations.
Do you find the USB stick selector levers or selector wheels to be an improvement over gear selector levers? Have you driven one? It's really not always viable to drive with both hands at 10 and 2 especially when you have to do every stupid UI maneuver through the touchscreen. This completely defeats the entire purpose of the idrive wheel as well since you can no longer rest your hand near the selector for spirited driving. The idrive wheel was the only saving grace for touch screen everything - next that will die too, and then we're all stuck not paying attention to the road whole we try and change the heat settings in the giant panoramic screens.
It's ridiculous, and it's not a step forward.

I have no problems with the lever. Or the screen. You are touting subjective opinions. Not that your opinion isn’t valid, it’s a valid opinion. But it isn’t the only one. If you don’t like it, don’t buy it and stop complaining.
