Gridlock sucks no matter what your transmission. And ATs suck no matter what traffic conditions are.
The real problem on the manufacturing end is that every meathead too dumb to wrap his brain around a manual can't buy one, while as much as I enjoy driving, I can buy an automatic. That's simple enough math for any factory.

Hate to break it to you but factories don't care about the 1% that want a manual.
