People who work at dealerships or auto shops should know how to drive stick, no exceptions.
I don't understand though, why many people have a grudge against automatic transmission. As far as I know they've gotten quite good with the advent of computers.

holy shit you just reminded me of Joecartoon
Fun is the answer. People finding more engaging. And it is extremely satisfying, and people are scared that manuals will stop being produced if the popularity of auto continues to increase. This leads to a vendetta against auto.
It's not about how good they are its about preference.
Personally I never want to drive auto dd or for enjoyment. But I live where everyone knows manual and this is the norm.
Technically speaking, the Ecoboost ones are supercharged: the supercharger is being driven by a turbine in the exhaust, which makes it a turbo-supercharger, or turbocharger.
However, that cunt should get a new job.
They've come a long way, but they aren't perfect yet. Some people still want manual because of driver engagement, or because they can easily keep it in the powerband.
