Where as from the little I know of the Tesla 3 display, the map stays lit all the time and the left side of the 1/5th screen (approx.) has the car's speed and other vital information displayed. If I know where I'm going, say like home after work and don't need the map, it'd be nice if the screen displayed only vital information in a dimmed setting.
Saab cars, before GM bought it, used to have a night time function for the gauge cluster that only lit the speedometer at night, and other gauges remained dark unless needed. Being the Tesla's screen is fully programmable, hopefully Elon sees fit to make it Customer configurable at some point.

Elon could give it real gauges and put the info screen a bit lower.
