Automatic transmissions also take control away from car drivers. As someone who can still drive manual, I don't know that I ever will again. I don't really want to shift through 8 gears. Even if this were for a motorcycle, it could be theoretically implemented to be seemless ~~as male~~ and make riding much simpler.
