depends on what you mean by "supririor" right?
they want to do this, because its easier to implement full computer control. its drive by wire, but for the front wheels. drive by wire, we might all hate, but is saved hundreds if not thousands of lives, because the reason to implement drive by wire, is so that the computer has full control of the throttle plate. basically all traction control systems use this.
so, while i dont like the idea of steer by wire, it too will probably save thousands more lives because now you can have the computer take over when people are doing dumb **** with the wheels of their car.
