2023 Super Duty.
New 2023 Ford Expedition may give another insight into interior options for the next SD.
While we can safely bet the 23’ will have the new updated F-150 interior, and my money is on the that, but this may be another option to separate the high trim options. I would definitely take it in a 23’ Limited.
Thank goodness Ford recognizes the need for redundant buttons.

I've gotten rid of more than one car because I didn't like the billboard-sized display, and was initially excited that I got a MY21 instead of a MY22 because I wanted the smaller screen. Having seen the new Super Duty and now this Expedition incorporate a physical key to turn off the display, I think I need to order a new truck. I'd rather have a larger screen easily turned off than a small screen constantly lit with a power setting buried layers deep in an interface:

Personally I doubt that Ford will move off what they've been doing. SD, and F-150 interiors being essentially identical.

I really like both interiors (the new F-150 as well as the new Expedition) and am patiently waiting for the complete interior update before I order a new SD. I also REALLY like the seats in the new F-150. Either way the full update on the SD interior will be a nice change along with the updated exterior.

I have had two Tesla Model S cars since 2013. Initially I was turned off, like many of you, by the huge screen (in Tesla's case, it's 17"). Also, in the Tesla there are ZERO ***** or buttons except the one that activates the hazard lights and the glove box. There are also some steering wheel controls which can be customized any way you like. But the AC/heat/music and all car functions go through the screen. I was sure I would hate it. I'm a button-**** kind of guy. I don't like hunting in menus to do stuff. But now after driving it around for almost 12 years, I can tell you there's no going back. Tesla continually improves the interface making it more intuitive and more functional. It is leaps and bounds better than anything in the SD trucks running Sync 4, so don't use that as your benchmark. They also keep introducing new options that you would never see if you were tied to physical buttons.
Like many of you, I thought the screen would be too bright driving at night and too distracting in general. If buttons all over the place don't distract you, neither will a big screen doing nothing except showing you a map. Incidentally, Tesla also doesn't restrict the use of that screen while driving, unlike all the other nanny big-brother car manufacturers. And *shockingly* there are no more accidents involving Teslas than other cars despite that freedom. Anyhow, I think Dodge and Ford going to a 12" screen was a direct result of Tesla pioneering the concept. I'll bet GMC will do the same next year. And now that I've had more than a decade to use it, I feel sure that the future of all cars and trucks will be larger and larger screens with fewer and fewer buttons.
Take a look at Cadillac's latest with a 33" screen. The pre-order phase sold out all cars in 10 minutes. Obviously it's appealing. And for those that say they will never agree to a screen with no buttons, I'll bet you also said that when they came out with power windows when all you had at the time was hand cranks.

I have a split personality on this. this electric car, I would expect and want the larger screen. In a truck, I prefer ***** and physical buttons. Easier to use when the driver is dirty, muddy, wet, etc.
