Whats up with the idiot gages?

Does anyone know the logic behind the way Ford has designed their instrument gages? For the last fifteen years I have been waiting for Ford to get rid of the ‘Idiot’ gages they have been using. Anything within a gross margin is within the “Normal” range. It doesn’t matter that your battery needle is indicating strong to the left, hey, that’s ‘Normal’. Come on already, I want to see numbers instead of “Normal”. These idiot gages have been around too long.
