Same as what it did in the original Tesla cars. They only removed the stalks recently.

Tesla should take inspiration from this and at least bring back the physical gear shifter and the turn signal stalks.

Ubiquity is pretty important when you're going to invest in learning a new editor. This is one of the advantages of vim for example. It is available everywhere... linux, windows, terminal, gui, etc.
