incredible fine range of adjustment to the intermittent wiper frequency.
You see stupid shit like this actually is useful imo. Everyone's had that moment when you can't quite get the speed right. So why doesn't everyone have a little dial as well as auto?
The answer is because doing these genuinely useful little engineering bits well is so much more expensive.

My 22 (23?) year old 911 has a rheostat that provides an incredible fine range of adjustment to the intermittent wiper frequency.
My 13 year old C55 has automatic rain sensing wipers.
Both are great for their own reasons, but I’d not want the feature on the other car, if that makes sense.
