      I don’t mind a touchscreen. Apple CarPlay/Android Auto are really nice.

      I just also want physical controls for everything the car needs to do to be a car, like climate control or wipers or shifting. And also physical controls for play/pause, skip, volume, and tuning.

      Touchscreens can do a lot to enhance the car experience, but they cannot replace physical buttons.

          Sure. I don’t want games or videos (though I can see how that would be useful while waiting for an EV to charge).

          I just want Apple CarPlay/Android Auto. Or, failing that, whatever controls are necessary to facilitate an infotainment system.

      I’d go as far as mounting a full size qwerty keyboard on the steering wheel. Although we’d somehow have to deal with the shrapnel grenade situation as soon as the airbag hits it.
