    The BMW thing wasn’t a panic. It was being incensed at being locked out of the hardware that comes with the car and putting it behind a paywall. If you can’t see how ridiculous that is I’m not sure what to tell you.

    Maybe just build it into the car and give people free heated seats. They’re not really luxury anymore.

      If putting the hardware in makes the assembly line simpler and the car is 2000 euros cheaper but you want to pay more just to remove the hardware, I don’t know what to tell you.
