It boils down to this; those who love driving a stick do it because they love it. Has innovation brought us technology that most people prefer? Yes, but that is not what a stick driver enjoys. For those who like clutch pedal alternatives, there are plenty of them for you and I’m happy for you. I like mixing my own gears and I would hope that folks will leave me to it.
No one here is saying you cannot enjoy it or holds it against you. You just have to understand that sticks are going away due to lack of popularity. That is just a simple fact of life.

RWD just seems to want to deride those of us who chose, for what ever reason, not to drive a stick. It will not change the future of the stick shift.
