I would much rather have a 6MT box.

The manual components are always similar with slight adjustments for the new engine, flywheel and physical location of the shifter.

Things I heard that were different, no rev match, possibly different effort level on shift, new engine flange with larger starter gear rim, reinforced crankshaft with 4 metal plates.

Dear Karsten & team, thank you for allowing us to turn off rev-matching in the various drive modes and for keeping the manual transmission alive for this generation.
Because cruising down the highway in 6th at 80mph and 3kish rpm is no fun. In this regard the DCT is much better.

That would be the only reason, at least in my book.
