Truthfully my Miele does well enough on it's own with cycles as they are, do not need to mess about with the controls
Well that was generally my point, you don't really lose any flexibility or controllability per se with electronic controls. And why be there to dialpush and change the cycles when generally a machine such as a Miele does it without any fuss? Sort of takes the "automatic" out of automatic washer and dishwasher.
I don't think all electronically controlled machines are written by "fools", and for the average end user they don't offer any reduced control, seeming as most people tend to only use one or two programmes and press start - if anything it should be consumers as a whole we should be blaming for any reduced control in machines.
Now for us fanatics it is a different story, but even for my finicikity tastes I don't feel limited at all by the electronic controls on my machine. If I do want extra rinses, I can easily run the separate rinse cycles as much as I desire but I've simply found no real need to except for on a rainy day.
