The point is that there will be no way to handle the turn signal through muscle memory. With a traditional control, it is always in the same place in relation to your body. It doesn’t move. When it’s in the steering wheel, it can be in many, many different places. If you have media controls on your steering wheel, try using them during a turn without taking your eyes off the road. Now pretend they are smooth and act like a touch input on a dual shock controller.

As is the one on the wheel. Right next to your thumb.
Your thumb stays at the same place on the steering wheel when you’re not driving straight? O.o
Unless I'm making a very sharp turn (in which case my turn signal should already be on), yes, of course it does.
There are numerous times you would need to put your turn signal on when the steering wheel isn’t perfectly straight. A three point turn for instance. Exiting a roundabout in some places, a curved residential road. Just because you fail to think of scenarios it applies in, doesn’t mean it doesn’t apply.

No one is talking about "when the steering wheel isn't perfectly straight". Come back when you want to have an honest conversation.
Pretty honest conversation here. If you’re doing any of the things I just listed, you’re improperly driving if your thumbs aren’t moving.
Me: "Unless I'm making a very sharp turn"
You: "When the steering wheel isn't perfectly straight".
There's nothing honest about that. You're intentionally misrepresenting my argument.
It’s cute how you’re hung up on my wording, and completely ignoring my three very real situations where your thumbs are very likely nowhere near their normal position.
Please tell me more about how I’m arguing dishonestly with what should have been obvious was a hyperbolic statement. 😉
Yes, that's it. You're not being dishonest, I'm just "hung up on the words you used." Because those are not important 🙄 Goodbye
Whatever you need to tell yourself to avoid the situation I suppose. I just wanted to make sure you knew it was pretty transparent.
