@nightsky "touchscreens everywhere" isn't an aesthetic choice, it's a cost-of-goods choice: which adds more to the cost of a physical product, a bunch of bespoke embossed buttons/keys for specific tasks, or a single mass-produced touchscreen?
It's the same reason modern electronics uses embedded microcontrollers rather than actual properly designed task-specific gate arrays.
