If you didn't want chunky you would be happy with the touchy-freely screeny thingy...
I have this huge beef with nearly all modern automotive tech where you have to look to see which of a dozen identical buttons does what. Or at the anodyne screen to see where they have hidden the non-button thingy today.
When I was an apprentice and asked my instructor why the autopilot controls on the aircraft had a dozen weirdly shaped buttons instead of a row of neat little identical square or round ones he gave me a clout round the ear and told me to go figure. Then he poked me in both eyes and made me wear sexy chamois pilot's gloves and told me to go fondle.
In a pitch-black cockpit on a pitch-black night when all the panel lights were off so no-one could find you and kill you, it was obvious that as long as you were not an apprentice you would be able to tell what you were doing by feel. He said!
Give me the old days when 'controls' in cars (and on the odd bike that had any controls) were a mish-mash of pull this, push that, twist this, lift this and move that big thing to the left. Or right. Oh, and a reminder to tuck your thumb in, in case the starting handle kicked back.
