That's a big reason for choosing Deere ivt alongside a bit of brand preference, my dad has to still work with it sometimes and figuring he already struggles with the dead simple 5085M but he doesn't use it much tbfAfter driving a massey vario along side a SPFH I certainly hope they still creep, makes things a lot smoother on that job and any thing that needs low speed precision . The John deere vario Stick with two set speeds and roller wheel is simplicity itself , far nicer and safer than the massey joystick, nothing worse than burying settings behind menus and ruining usability .
Although JD are not immune from ruining things with pointless menus , they did that with Auto quad when they moved the change point settings from a dial on the side console to behind menus and multiple button presses on a screen, the result being auto is more hassle than manual , the same for pto speed selection which used to be on hot keys on the 30's but now behind menus after a 30 second boot time on the r series !
