I'm not sure why lane keeping requires and automatic, it seems to me turning the wheel would be fine.

My manual does fine for emergency braking (though it's a little touchy when someone in front of me is turning or if I'm accelerating to speeding under 20mph). I feel like if the emergency brake slows me down so much I need to shift the problem is me, not the manual (it hasn't over the last 10k miles I've had the car).

It'll certainly never self drive, and is useless for stop and go traffic cruise control (20-60mph heavy traffic is fine).

The higher end performance is shifting towards dual clutch since it's objectively better for performance.

The economy cars are getting automatics to simplify production lines now that automatics are basically the same cost to make and essentially as efficient as manuals.

So the only manuals getting made are in the budget low tech sportscar market where people aren't going for performance, but fun on a budget.

Nonsense. Nobody is "forced" to incorporate GPL code into their project.

I may want to use the code modified and not share my modifications. The GPL prevents this.

Aside from the corner case of libraries incrementing proposed standards I think this is a plus, but it certainly is a restriction that a copy left license has and a BSD/MIT one doesn't.
