Because kids, because bitter cold, because it's never fully clean and WILL drop some on the seats...
Thinking about it, it's even a problem on rainstorm days.

Gullwing are one-piece doors which swing outwards, hitting nearby cars, poles, bikes and pedestrians. Parking requires planning.
The Tesla version has two hinges, so it swings up more than out, reducing the risk of hitting anything.
Obviously, they were designed by someone who has unlimited garage headroom, and doesn't regularly find a foot of snow on top of his car...
I need removable battery less than I need a physical keyboard.
Can't wait...
Gotta call Poe's Law on this one...
When Toyota had the audacity of becoming number 1, their CEO got dragged in front of the US congress about some acceleration issues.
VW just made the mistake of becoming number 1, and suddenly we discover they've been cheating at emissions. Expect a congress hearing and lots of demands for sanctions.
Was there a punishment when GM recently had a major oops?
They need to upgrade their fiber link.
News! Breaking News! The Chinese PLA has plans drawn up describing how to nuke major US cities!
The "always look at the thing in your hand" generation is completely screwed...
Excuse me while I go buy stock in glasses retailers and Lasik providers.
Millions of dollars of business isn't running through the copper cable pictured in that second link either.
A severed fiber cable picture isn't exactly hard to find, why don't "journalists" make a bit of effort?
They'll build a drone around a gun so they can use the second amendment.
I was just staring at Process Explorer, wondering why my company decided that the FireEye policy would allow it to max out one of my cores in the middle of the afternoon.
All those ads...
Somebody's got a decent internet connection... care to share with the needy?
Sure. Let's say that your screen's pressure sensor has an MTBF of half a million hours. That's a number for some industrial ones, according to google, and one could assume that a higher-points commercial one would have a lot less, probably an order of magnitude, so let's got with over 50 years MTBF...
Now, you're shipping 50 millions pieces, with an expected 2-years average device lifespan. What's your pressure sensor failure rate? What's the additional failure rate compared to only having a capacitive sensor?
That's before you consider abuse of all kinds, like bendgate, and the failure rate of the extra support circuitry.
I don't want unnecessary gadgets in my phone, because FIT rates are additive
I'll speak Swahili before it becomes cool.
Those who can, do; those who can't, write. Those who can't write work for the Bell Labs Record.
