The metaphor of driving stick is one that I've tried and tested multiple times and this is yet another unique take, well done. But I also feel like there's an element of technological progression that comes into the metaphor, when you think about the real reason we all drive Automatic nowadays. It's just a product of the simplicity we created for ourselves - even the race cars that require manual shifts are just pushes of a button as opposed to finding the right notch in a gearbox. I think this nuance clears up the idea that driving in automatic shouldn't be seen as a shortcut or a cop-out, but rather a mode of efficiency..? Idk, maybe I'm driving the metaphor into the ground but, just making a small distinction there.
This brought back distant memories of me sitting in manual-driving cars. Also like the note: “Emerging technologies come and go, and will continue to get better. However, embrace manual driving as all autonomy is built on the basis of core fundamentals.”
