  1. C10.10.1Detents per revolution cap the granularity a single turn can achieve
  2. C10.10.2Mechanical detents come from a physical pawl; electronic detents are motor-simulated, and they feel different
  3. C10.10.3Too little damping lets a knob turn by itself under vibration
  4. C10.10.4The resistance curve between detents decides whether people can count steps by feel alone
