No MT supporters wish to take away the PDK option, but the PDK crowd is more than happy to take away the MT option.
Seems to me it is the PDK crowd that is doing the hating.

Why did I post live & let live in three separate posts? Time to put the big girl panties on today.
Oh and Admiral Adama is the real deal, not Kirk.

Stop it. What's wrong with bit coins? I just moved my retirement accounts to it. Next my inheritance cash. Man, you guys are just mean spirited.

What the heck are Bitcoins? One of my friends gave me over 1000 of them several years ago for doing some work on his car for him.

Well, if you are not advocating eliminating the MT option, then my statement obviously didn't apply to you to.

The computer can only decide on shifting strategy in a reactive way on sensor inputs. Humans are way better on this because we can do it proactively based on what we see ahead. Computer in our 991 today can not see ahead like humans can.

It's the clutch that is the slow part of the equation, not the shift tactics. We are talking about manual shifts, using PDK as being superior to any fancy footwork you can imagine you could do. Simple math, folks.
No one here is comparing MT manual shifts to full auto, except the poor souls desperately clinging to an MT, while erroneously averring that an MT will beat a PDK equipped 991 (crazy talk).
