Why does turning the iDrive knob clockwise zoom out, wouldn't it be more intuitive to zoom in? Even my German wife agrees... 
I'm overdue for a rant and thought I'd choose some low hanging fruit.

Correct. For all the effort BMW claims to put into the design of their controls and i-drive, it is amazing the obvious things they miss. Like, why does pressing the "UP" arrow on the steering wheel moves you to a lower channel number with Sirius, while pressing the "DOWN" arrow moves to a higher channel number?
It's like they are sometimes intentionally trying to frustrate the driver.
