I am sympathetic to this argument, up to a point.Steering became more of an issue as cars got heavier and front tires got wider, so cars gained hydraulic power-assisted steering to compensate. Hydraulic pistons reduce the effort required to steer the front wheels, and there's not much inertia, but the steering system still communicated forces back from the front wheels and through the steering to the driver's hands.The problem is that running a hydraulic system requires enough power to be noticeable in fuel efficiency.
