Touch screens are shit tor buttons. They can be hacked. They can be unresponsive.

There's a load of other reasons, but either or both are enough to realise that a physical button is much safer. Perfect example of safety being lost in technology. Just because we can, doesn't mean we should.

The worst is all the ones that cheaped out and put a resistive touchscreen. Making it 10 times worse.

And they dont work with gloves when it's cold.
