What could possibly go wrong?
As someone who likes to drive with their hand on the top-center of their wheel, this design is absolutely terrible.

Toyota engineers working on the system, which is also known as One Motion Grip, said the new ratio gave the system an “easier, more familiar feel” for customers.

If only there was a steering system known for feel and feedback that works perfectly fine. Perhaps hydraulically assisted.
