Okay, a little followup on this.

I'm not actually always opposed to touch interfaces. I mean, I use my phone a lot, maybe too much.

Touch interfaces are fine for complex and dynamic situations. When you need to navigate through menues where content changes and the input methods may range from buttons to sliders to whatever and they aren't always in the same spot.

My issue is when static interfaces use touch controls. In those cases there are no benefits to having a touch interface, only the downsides.

The downsides are plentiful.
- Misinput, very easy to miss the place you intended to touch and instead touch something else
- Unregistered inputs, this is extremely common in appliances in my experience often exasserbated by cheap touch sensors
- Unintuitive interfaces, while this doesn't have to be the case, it almost always is, and is an accessability problem
- Overcomplication, this is more of an extension of my previous point but touch inputs often feel needlessly complicated when you could've just had a simple dial
- Lack of tactile feedback, a biiiig accessability concern and also a problem for neurotypical ablebodied people too as it's hard to get things right when you need to be fast which you often have to be when working with food!

And there's probably more to add to this list
