Take a car with an internal combustion engine and replace everything that is needed for an electric car. Now you have a no-nonsense car.

Instead, we have a rolling data center that feels like a smartphone.

I think it's a salient point: It's not just EVs. The entire industry has gone whole-hog on the "rolling data center" model.

As to "why" from your post title...well, I assumed it was a rhetorical question to introduce a (short) rant about the sad state of the automobile market.
