I used to feel the same way as you about large touch screens in cars as the main interface in place of physical tactile buttons but I've come to accept that's just the way it is now and if you're looking to buy a new car it'll be hard to avoid. I think some cars (like bmw) have found decent compromise with physical buttons for frequently accessed things like climate or seat warmers.

Don't even get me started on Teslas which is essentially a tablet with a large car-shaped case around it.

bmw has also removed physical buttons for climate and heated seats in idrive8. it's an unfortunate step backward, but it's also not as bad as people on the internet will tell you.
