Maybe but that would be an issue with manufacturers putting in 20 screens in the cars. Doesn't really have anything to do with what OS runs those screens.
If anything I would argue having carplay handle all the screens would be less distracting since hopefully Apple is able to design an easier to use and more intuitive interface than the car manufacturers. It also has the benefit of being familiar regardless of the vehicle you have (assuming it has this feature).

It's not. The only thing NECESSARY is a steering wheel, gas and brake pedal.
However as long as car manufacturers keep adding unnecessary things to their cars I'm happy to have a well designed universal OS to manage it.
