I pull my handbrake every time I park my car, but never mistake it for the windshield wiper while the car is moving

There is no shortage of people who press the wrong pedal or button in a car or elsewhere. But of course it could never happen to you, you're special!

    You moved the goalposts from "do something catastrophic by doing something completely unrelated to what you were trying to do" to "press the wrong pedal or button in a car or elsewhere"

    We're talking about taking an action in a different place in the cockpit controls that has safeties built in to prevent accidental use... like pulling a handbrake by accident while the car is moving when you meant to put your wipers on
