I have the 2021 model 3, you have a physical button to fire them off once (and to do the cleaning cycle), but to manually set the speed you need to use the touchscreen. There is an auto mode, of course, but sometimes you do need to adjust it manually.
I agree… and to amplify the point, pressing the physical button, in addition to kicking off a needed wipe, also brings the adjustment right up unobtrusively on the screen in case it’s needed.
And then, not that anyone needs to touch the screen normally (because auto mode as you say) but if they aren’t all triggered by such a possibility and want to, those multiple layers of on-screen UI (that the haters are always imagining having to click through) simply are not there because it’s already been surfaced.
A driver can even learn to use it with muscle memory without looking, since it comes right up in the same closest corner of the screen with the same layout every time. Again not that anyone would ever need to because auto mode.
I don’t know why people have to have such strong opinions on things they know nothing about.

OK, got a little excited ranting there :-)
