Yep, I'm with you (both).

I only use LCD screen for multimedia and maps. AC, driving modes, functions are all still physical buttons either near the screen or on the steering wheel. And they should stay there!

I remember how confused I was once, in Tesla, seeing that big screen over there.. one couldn't stay focused on driving...
