I just mean that your odometer and your speedometer and everything else are part of the cluster which can entirely fail so everything shuts down, just like a single display can fail, so there’s no inherent benefit to analog over digital. It’s not just individual components they are all connected still and the entire thing can all shut off at once as well, which happened to me in my little 2005 Pontiac Sunfire.

I drive a 2005 Opel Astra and had the tachometer and speedometer fail on separate occasions while everything else on the dash kept working.
Yes, they can fail individually as well as all together there are multiple points where it can fail at.
