Chris,
Yes, design does need to be a compromise and if we still had 3 speed manual trannies, gear selection would have to be a compromise. But now every manual I am aware of has at least 5 speeds. Any of these vehicles have a 4th gear capable of 'go directly to jail' speeds. So, why not make that 5th gear higher? Is a wider gap going to affect performance? I seriously doubt it.
