Would you use a PC without any of keyboard hotkeys?

I’m not fanatical about this, I would use it if I would be forced by circumstances. But I would not be happy about it. And I still would try to educate/convince older colleagues that hotkeys make things quicker/easier/“reliabler”.

From your speculation of source of touchscreen hate, I see that you feel that tesla has superior car touchscreen experience. And I don't doubt that. But however good you can be with touchscreen, you can do even better if you also have bunch of physical buttons (in addition to touchscreen/must look then point device).

That's not a good analogy. The main interface to the car is not the controls/screen, it's the steering wheel and pedals. The controls and screen are interacted with only intermittently. There is more information available allowing for automating most of the controls, and voice control for the rest, meaning the screen is mostly just used for visualization and the occasional action.
