The volume icon on the Tesla touch screens has the same functionality.

Curiously, it’s at the far bottom right of the screen, such that it’s easy to use the majority of the screen to the left to lower the volume, while increasing the volume is difficult due to the limited screen real wastage to the right. No doubt this was placed here for the passenger of the vehicle to use, but the result that it’s safer to lower the volume quickly than increase it quickly is interesting to me.

Though, I suppose it would have the opposite effect when the passenger is on the left side of the vehicle.
