It's the high school snobby car kid take on transmissions. I know cause I used to think the same way. The individualist part of me that needed to feel special liked that they were rarer, it allowed me to look down on people with nicer/faster cars, etc. I think I carried it with me until maybe late 20s when I finally changed my tune. My last M was a DCT and I really enjoyed it. Didn't feel like there was any less control than a manual to me.
