there is a strong demographic of us which hate that shit. knobs and switches gang
CarPlay exists fine with knobs and switches. It's just a solid integration for playing audio and having a solid GPS view with Apple Maps/Google Maps/Waze. It doesn't inherently require giving up knobs and switches.
Some are better than others. You can control CarPlay without touching the screen in Mazdas for example.
Do do I, but those two things are not mutually exclusive
I don't think you're using the word "strong" correctly.
Anyway, all you have to do is just NOT plug your phone onto the car.
