      I’m imagining a dashboard bristling with these, to control everything from door locks to wipers.

      Maybe a few big red buttons and flashing toggle buttons too, case depending.

      It’d be a horrible experience to drive, which is itself a net benefit.

        It takes like 4 switches and a button to get the power into the back to open the trunk, all while you crackle maniacally in the grocery store parking lot. Also it needs to be struck by lightning first.

        So, in the future when self driving is a thing, you have most people napping or watching their favorite drama in 2 second clips between 5 second commercials, and then there’s you. Fully entertained you, cackling while randomly flipping hundreds of switches that aren’t quite aligned, each one making a spark on contact and doing something innocuous like changing the color of the interior accent lights.
