I will add one more thing, touchscreens have the ability to allow you to customise location of "knobs and dials", according to your own idea of "what makes sense".
However, having one car with both, I cannot understate the fact that you can touch physical buttons and correct yourself without activating them or looking.
Haptic feedback on touchscreens, while allowing you to sense without activating those buttons, is possible. And I wonder why nobody is doing it.
My guess: that's because even with haptic feedback you only get a binary response to inform you that something was indeed touched. But with a physical button, you can feel the texture of material, its edges, its geometry, when is fully pressed, when is up again, etc.
When you have several touchscreen buttons/controls (or whatever) near enough haptic feedback is kind of confusing without looking at the screen.
IMO, this can be easily checked in any mobile game with haptic feedback, the feeling is subpar to a physical controller.
Maybe the technology for a haptic feedback that can accurately give different stimuli to different parts of a touchscreen already exist, but never seen it before.
