This is a tough thing, right?

And this is what makes engineering so fun and so challenging is figuring out the right balance.

And I don't know, I feel like for me,

If things are new, that doesn't immediately bother me.

So as a silly example of this, Volvo just released for Aaron's car a new version of the infotainment software that really aggressively rejiggers where everything is on screen.

And in some ways, I think that the rearranged deck chairs are an improvement, right?

And it's for the best.

But I can tell you for Erin, it's been very frustrating because she, as the primary driver of that car, will mash on a particular portion of the giant touchscreen in the center dash in order to see her backup camera, for example.

And now that button's somewhere else.

And that's frustrating for her, and I get that.

Liquid Glass pissed off most of the community, and I mostly don't agree with that.

I mostly think Liquid Glass is actually pretty good.

But it certainly made everyone upset, and it definitely moved things around.

And so...

I don't necessarily think new is bad, and I'm kind of of the opinion... Actually, a great example of this... God help me, I'm going to get so much email.

Please email someone else.

Good luck with that.

The icons in the menu bar, I don't think they're particularly additive, but I am not deeply morally offended by them like it seems most of our peers are.

That doesn't make me right, for the record.

I'm just telling you my personal opinions about it.
