Or at least through a beefier switch, but the industry standards balance
out with the cheapest components going into the vehicles that will allow
the vehicles to have a 5-6 year life span.  We vanagon kooks force the poor
things to live for 25 years and more in an era where vehicles aren't
expected to. But yes, setting up relays (And beefier wiring) throughout the
dash-board switches and components would probably greatly increase the life
of many things.
