I suppose cameras can give you a better field of view than a mirror can though.
Sure but if they break, it's a more expensive repair, one that I may be able to do myself whereas replacing a mirror or mirror housing isn't that hard.
I want less computerization of cars, personally. Or at least a repairable, customizable, and FOSS system, if I have to have computers in my car.
"If they break", oh yes, let's fund a strawman.
Go see what a broken mirror costs today.
Glass alone, if heated (many are) $100+. Actual motorized mirror: $300+. Then there's painting to match.
Cameras would be smaller, less likely to get damaged, and are pretty commodity tech these days.

Try $30 and fuck painting. Old car better.
