For me it’s the notification light you used to find on older phones, was particularly good to know if your phone was charged without picking it up

My 2021 VW GLI is mostly buttons. There's a big touchscreen for the infotainment, except volume. There's a "tuner" knob but it doesn't really so anything (I don't listen to am/fm radio). HVAC controls are all buttons and knobs. Steering wheel controls are also buttons and switches.

I love this car lol

My CX5 is similar, buttons for all things not entertainment. There's only one out of place design on the car that irks me - it doesn't have a setting to change whether the mirrors fold or not. Why is this useful? I'm in the Midwest and in the winter they can get stuck overnight due to ice. So they have a convoluted process (without an audible or visual confirmation mind you) to disable or enable. Ignition on, lock the windows. Press all three passenger window buttons on the driver's door down for 3 seconds. This would have been so much nicer to be in a menu off of the entertainment system, similar to say the lighting timing upon exit etc.
