Precisely, Tesla went their own way for no reason other than cost.. it is objectively worse than their previous implementation, the mainstream implementation, and any of the competing less-standard implementations that Tesla defenders are grasping at.

There's a reason you don't put control buttons on moving parts.

It's like putting the elevator buttons on the door. Want to press your floor, please wait until the door shuts.. or lunge at it as the door moves. Want to hit the door close button.. sorry that's no longer possible.

Imagine motorized blinds where the button is on the blinds. Better get the ladder out when they are up & you want to bring them down.

Imagine a fan where the buttons were on the spinning blades, or the center rotor with buttons moved while on.

I don't understand the design decisions. You know he was heavily involved in some Tesla change when its something this dumb because no one can stop him.
