I definitely do not agree. It is a well known fact, that sliders are far
 less ergonomic. You can differ a lot more positions on rotary movements
 than on straigt line formed movements (imagine a car with a fader for
 steering instead a wheel - and imagine the increase of assurance rates
 if every car had a steering fader ;-)).
 Sliders may have the advantage of a fast access and a high visuality of
 the selected value, but they are very bad in the detailing of settings.
