All my fingers work fine on a touch screen. If your thumb was injured and you needed emergency assistance, would you really give up instead of trying to use your index finger? Really? You would just lay there and die because you can't or won't use your index finger instead of your thumb to call for help? Really?!?
I hope this isn't true and you've merely lost track of the context of this discussion.
Cars are already removing them because they are a distraction and don't work!

You know ironically what the real reasoning behind it also is?
Touch screens are cheap, why should I buy a luxury car to watch a black piece of glass in my car when it's turned off? It doesn't feel luxury, it feels identical to the cheap car of everybody else, it looks identical to induction burners. And why is the manufacturer saving on costs if the car costed me a premium price, because it's nominally a top brand?
Would you buy a Prada bag made of cheap plastic in China?
So you're going to give up and die because you have a broken finger. Got it. If I believed you I'd call you pathetic, but I know you're almost certainly bullshitting because you lost the context of the conversation, made a stupid argument, and are now trying to save face by doubling down.
Nobody rolls over and dies because of a broken finger. People regularly walk around with broken limbs after accidents, oblivious to their injuries because adrenaline has that effect to keep people alive. But you're here arguing that a broken thumb will render you unable or unwilling to call for help? As if you don't have two hands. As if you don't have 9 other fingers. As if you couldn't use your broken thumb to lightly touch a touchscreen if your life depended on it. Give me a break dude! If you die because of a broken thumb, your will to live must be completely nonexistent and you should go talk to a therapist because there is a real risk that you might starve to death after neglecting to eat out of apathy.
> wall of text of other irrelevant bullshit
What even was your point in posting that? I don't like touchscreens in cars either but that has nothing to do with this conversation and you know it. Stop bullshitting.
