Wait so this is like the bmw heated seat thing? Where all cars have the heaters but they are only enabled via software if you pay? But in an airplane?

Is that what I'm reading?

More or less yes.

If you want to see the way this looks on the flight displays that a pilot sees, this video shows some examples (generated from a flight simulator): https://youtu.be/L5KQ0g_-qJs?si=AtYkellEROnHZ89e&t=349

Yes, and we're not talking about heated seats but about seatbelts, airbags or crumple zones.
