spacex already disproved this myth

SpaceX doesn't certify to FAA/EASA, and also doesn't have to work for 30 years.
SpaceX's crewed capsule is 5-10 years newer than the A350.

I imagine SpaceX has a different set of certification requirements (ie Airbus has stronger financial incentives to use existing, approved designs for components).

Didn’ someone later confirm that there is in fact physical buttons below the touch screen, because you can’t actually use the touch screen with cloves on anyway.
the touch screens work with gloves they confirmed, the physical buttons are for backup.
