Sure. You've got the camera up against your eye and the shot lined up, and just need to change the white balance. It's as simple as prying a fat finger between your face and the camera to hold down one of all of those buttons that are all next to each other and feel the same with next to no tactile feedback, and then turning the wheel and praying you pressed the right button, because if you didn't, then you're going to have to undo what you just changed and try again.
While if you want to change white balance on a film camera, you need to rewind the current roll of film, hope that you have another roll with the correct color balance in your bag, then load that roll of film. Or fiddle about screwing and unscrewing filters onto the lens for finer adjustments. Yeah, much more convenient than simply pressing a button and turning a knob!
