You know that most gloveboxes are already lockable weirdly a touch screen, yeah?

Word “most” doing a lot of heavy lifting. I drove a lot of different types of hire car, and I’ve never seen an option to lock or unlock the glovebox, nor had a situation where it’s been locked.
With a key? It’s not very convenient.
No, they lock automatically when the car does.
I see, it’s not too stupid. Probably more expensive.
Much more so than a touchscreen.
I don’t think so.
