The loss of power steering is trivial.

That depends on how heavy the steering is without the power
assistance. On the old Mondeo it wasn't to bad, heavy certainly but
you didn't need almost every bit of upper body strength and heave the
wheel round with both hands on the same side like my current car
needs.

Power steering on cars is only in any sense necessary at parking
speeds. Even small trucks can be driven with no PS.

I used to drive a Range Rover without power steering - i'd agree about
parking.
