Teslas led all manufacturers for frontal collisions. The screen is distracting and dangerous.
If you want to argue that screens are distracting because you can do so much on them that's one thing, but climate control being on the screen isn't the cause of some epidemic that is leading Tesla to be at the forefront if that's the case, it's just not that distracting, and you can do everything else but fog lights without it, and a lot of Tesla's don't even come with fog lights.
What is distracting while driving is dealing with the navigation system if you want to change something, but that's the same in any car, whether you use your phone or the screen, with voice or without. Maybe people shouldn't be fussing with that while driving and pull over or turn it off and rely on road signs if something changes.
