I agree Culzean. Although, at times, it's not even convenience but simply technology for the sake of it. As I did a googling and Youtube session on keyless entry it soon became evident that people were genuinely discombobulated by this "improvement" - loads of instructional videos - some by Honda Dealers all over the globe and loads of queries.
There was nothing wrong with remote central locking with a back up key - no Youtube videos required or indeed no questions on Google.
If it ain't broke do your best to unfix it seems to be the mantra now.
And this is sold as a desirable extra!!
