well i will get too bored when im going straight often in a AT but i like the paddles or sport-shift stick when im doing switchbacks while keeping the rev's high and torque converter nearly locked.
main problem for me is the torque converter. i hate the disconnected feel in most AT's and especially congestion. funny how people say AT's are great in traffic, i dont agree at all. MT is less tiring because no need to do any guessing in the throttle trimming of mush while car responds in a very general way. i hear the Z's AT has torque lock on 2-7. that's great.
