I find comfort in the fact that it still has actual gears....
I was the same about the auto shifters until I started working on them.. then they started fascinating me.
A silly example, when driving a manual and shifting a gear I can sort of see the stuff inside the transmizzion shift...like the visual is in my head... with auto's there isn't that and the drive wont go away until I can mimic one in my head. (Does this make sense??)
Automatics nowadays in performance cars can get better performance and economy than a manual between faster shifts and more gears, but I like to clutch and shift.
I don't know much at all about transmissions, although I'm aware of the basics of how the engine itself works.
Yeahp unfortunately...
