Potatoe Potatoh. Point is you size the overall system for quick adjustments, not continuous use. If you can get by with less weight and cost then you do as continuous use does not even begin to appear in the requirements sheet.

How much weight and cost do you think that’s going to add?

Do you think that being able to fiddle with your seat position for minutes on end is any way insufficient? Will you ever come close to actually using that feature?
If you answered those with “no”, then any extra weight and cost is too much. If you answered them with “yes” then get a massage chair and leave the poor car alone.

Adding this functionality will:
Require more IO, add complexity to any wiring harnesses, make repair or replacement more difficult. This all increases cost, probably more than a mass-produced seat motor used by other manufacturers.
For weight and cost, a proper design would have been negligible. Why do you think every other car isn’t made this way if it comes down to cost?
