personally i have never been a fan of the aesthetics of large computer screens. i find that at home they tend to dominate a scene, and similarly this happens on the dashboards in teslas, which is a shame because they have some pretty nice design hiding behind that big hulking computer monitor.

physical switches are best when on the go. a good example of this is the original ipod clickwheels (and even their touch sensitive replacements) which were way easier to operate in the car than competing audio players that hid everything behind menus.
