I guess the idea is less obstruction of the dash/window, keeping your hands at a more "correct" driving position, and being easier to position since it doesn't collide with your legs.
But ...
Well, right, I've driven some dedicated track cars with a yoke, and they have high ratio steering, very responsive, to the point of not being a good idea for a street car.
The issue with the yoke on the Tesla Model S/X, is the steering ratio is consistent regardless of speed, so while it's pretty effective at higher speeds, at lower speeds, like in a parking, lot, you're having to go hand-over-hand, and you can't really shuffle steer at moderate speeds. Even at track speeds, like the Ring runs done in the Model S Plaid, with legit drivers, they got a little crossed up trying to correct.
The ideal implementation would be to dynamically adjust the ratio, so around a parking lot the wheel to wheel lock wouldn't require more than like a 90° rotation (so not "over the top" where you're crossed up or need to swap hands).
