Nick Nixtarsky and air capain of twoty motor north America. Thank you both so much for fer joining us. Nick, i would say that that's on all things we we think we do really u but in addition to that, during the design phase, we do um quite a bit of like testing with users just to see, you know, ther's multiple ways, right? User experience. At the end of the day, customers, like you said, they need to be able to know how to operate the system and do it intuitively. Onder we're not going to take any more of it, i but thank you so much.
