The rest is irrelevant
There are certain things in life that we like exactly the way that they are. Even if this thing could be improved somehow in particular that wouldn’t matter, because, for whatever reason, there is no need to make any changes to this thing in your life.
This remote is the perfect example of something that works just fine the way that it is, even though there are definitely many improvements that could be made in order for this to become more user-friendly. But hey, some people like things the way that they are.
