Please don’t automate the climate controls further. If it’s 20F outside, I’m probably bundled up and happy with 55F cabin temperature. If it’s 85 I’ll be wearing a tshirt and will freeze in 65F.

Then there’s a separate issue of the control system being crappy. Even if it’s 20F and you need to heat the cabin to 55F, I don’t want deafening heat blasting in my face for 2 minutes to get there ASAP. I’d prefer a 10-15 slow ramp.

I realize those are highly personal desires, but I’m way better served by an old school(hot/cold)x(1/2/3/45) control. I’m happy to be the PID controller for the system

As somebody with allergies and asthma, the "blasting in my face" is always a problem. Blasts of cold air can set off asthma, and there's often dust and pollen accumulated in car intakes.

Spend some money on a good cabine air filter. Especially cheap and midrange cars come with simple ones, that can easily be replaced with activated carbon filters. It may cost 50-100 usd every two years extra, but it’s worth the money if you have allergies. It also reduces bad smells from outside air.

For example mann-filter.com sell also biofunctional filters for many car models. They made a huge difference for me. And worked flawlessly for 2 years.
