Why would anyone think it’s a good idea to put a pocket calculator’s worth of buttons in the center of a steering wheel?

The AC and C buttons were nice nod to the calculator inspired design.

Same thought here. It's nice that the horn, signal lights, and highbeams are bigger, but wow do I appreciate the ergonomics of conventional control stalks.
