Yes and for the past few decades the features of cars has exploded giving the driver a lot of options for configuration. Go through the car settings menu on any new car that isn’t just the cheapest scraped version, there’s dozens upon dozens of options that you can configure. Without a screen (not necessarily touch) to manage this, it would be button-hell where you couldn’t find anything.
My infotainment system doesn’t control any features of my car besides the speakers. Everything is either buttons, or is configured via dashboard, but even then that’s like 5 options that could definitely be buttons.
I guess you might believe that it’s required if your only experience with automobiles is a Tesla.

My experience is from VW/Skoda, Hyundai and volvo…the volvo was by far the worst and an absolute button-hell, it has insanely bad interior design.
I 100% prefer managing settings on a screen where I can get a proper detailed layout and logic representation of functional structure.
