This is the opposite direction Tesla is moving though. The last few updates have drastically improved voice commands (with some hiccups; an update or two actually made them worse). It is unlikely Tesla will increase the number of software defined physical controls in the vehicle, just my two cents.
Tesla already has some tactile controls - they're on the steering wheel. I think people are just asking for more of them. If Tesla continued along in the same vein, a few more software defined controls wouldn't hurt UX updates at all - they would just give users more options for the UX functions they use most often.

People buy cars as entire units, they don't buy features piecemeal. I could just as easily claim Tesla is selling cars in spite of its dearth of tactile controls.
