Exactly. Converting the national fleet of personally-owned automobiles to Level 5 (no steering wheel or pedals) overnight just is not going to happen. The only politicians that have the balls to suggest the Government can mandate to take personally-driven cars away are AOC and Bernie, both who are idiots...

A manual transmission can be set to "comfort", "sport", and "track" modes simply by the technique and speed at which you shift it; it doesn't need "modes", modes are for manumatics that try to behave like a real 3-pedal manual transmission. If you can money-shift it, it's a manual transmission. "Yeah, but NO ONE puts an automatic trans shift knob on a manual transmission."
