All these things are up to you. You can invoke the wipers whenever you want to, by pressing the physical button provided for that purpose.
You can set the temperature by voice control. Or… you could buy another car.
What the buttons do is dependent on modes that do happen to show up on the screen, but you can switch those modes using voice commands.

Unlikely, and I don't think so, but I'd say it's possible to miss some things in a test drive or two. I'm still learning new things about the car after two years of driving it. It takes a lot of complex work to make things simple.
It's also a moving target. You can say "it doesn't do X" but next week it might, with a software update.
Meantime, there are other cars, so it's all good! Sure it's true that some car models adopt patterns innovated by others, but I'm sure some cars will remain strictly manual control for those who want that.
