This is kinda misleading, the complaint is that cars are too expensive. They're not saying cars should be less safe, just that the extra safety isn't worth the financial cost.
(Still not a good position to take in my opinion)
I'd have to argue that cars are less safe when there is a giant tablet bolted to the dash and every setting is buried in menus.
I think we're finally past the peak of tablet-ification of car dashboards. A lot of manufacturers have finally realized people hate it and newer models are putting all crucial functions on buttons and only putting infotainment stuff on the tablet.
