Every new technology means you have a certain amount of lag time before the repair industry becomes familiar then profeciant at repairing that technology. CVTs are just getting there and they have been out for over a decade in the US even longer with the early Subaru Justy.

Dual clutch automated 6 speeds are still mostly under warranty by manufacturers. When that time period runs it's course then they too will repaired by transmissions shops.

Any human action in operating a car can be automated. The hydromatic came out in 1939.
