If they wanted to kill it they just would have. All others in the segment did. It makes absolutely no sense to make the effort to bring it if they don’t want to.

However, now having monopoly on it in the segment they don’t need to create possible complications by providing it across the lineup. Not even Porsche do it.

If you want to cast blame or theories that make sense glare at Audi, Benz and Alfa not the brand that still give you an MT.
Agreed. Not sure why the OP feels persecuted by BMW when they're offering his transmission of choice.
