Who's 7AT is "kicky"

2-1 downshifts can be rough, probably because you're going from lock up to fluid coupling.

3-4 upshifts are occasionally a little extra firm -- must be just due to how the planetary gears are set up.

Sounds normal, but check underneath to make sure you aren't leaking fluid from the trans housing, and therefore possibly running low on fluid.

If you hit WOT it's going to be more aggressive and the revs will go up towards red line before it shifts

Yep -- ECU seems to learn from M mode.

Yep again, line pressure and shift firmness are dictated by throttle position. Can also be tuned with Osirus to be faster and firmer even at low load.
