Cars should not use touchscreens for critical functions, period.

Even the aviation and space world is victim of touchscreen frenzy. There was a lot of criticism when SpaceX adopted full-touchscreen control on their Dragon capsule. Try to get anything done on a touchscreen under quite heavy loads/bumpy ride and you are SOL -- way more than with full physical controls.
