When it's 100+ in the summer, it's nice to push a button and get into a car already blowing cold air at high velocity. Or when it's 30 in the winter, push the same button and get a headstart on heat and warm seats.

Nothing wrong with a few luxuries as long as they don't interfere with performance (not that it matters with the Tahoe
