It's almost surely not happening in your lifetime, so you can rest easy.

Oh, X-by-wire will happen before 2030. How do I know? I'm leading a team currently working on it for the next German OEM technology flagship. SOP likely 2027 (advertised as earlier, though not likely) ... but still. Just saying.
