It also uses one jumbo "screen" (piece of glass) which locks you into a lot of design decisions about screen placement that just using two screens wouldn't. All just so you can have a little piece of connecting glass behind the steering wheel where you can never see it.
I don't need my instrument cluster to be at the same depth as my touch screen. One of those I never touch and it would be nice to have it be shaded/set a little further back.
Sorry, for going off topic, I just hate that this has become a thing across a bunch of cars/brands.
