+1, unless its much less complex because its a SCT (single clutch transmission).
I would think that if companies can make DCTs, and ABS, and all forms of other precision hydraulic and electronic machines, thata clutch actuation thats faster and better than a human foot would be very possible. Give up some control, yes, but still have the overall simplicity and efficiency of an MT.
And if the automated clutching was still lighter than an AT, then its a big win.
