Why would a MT transmission spec'd variant go through the same testing as it's AT brother, is it because they're technically different drivetrains?

I'm not a BMW engineer but I'd assume the only difference between AT/MT is the transmission, and judging by "muscle" cars, maybe the diff ratios.


I'm sure someone will comment on me being young but I also don't see why there's such a great push for MT. Yes I can drive MT, I even got my license on a MT car back home but with great AT boxes today I don't think a MT car would ever be my only car...
Hell if someone can combine a H patterned shifter that works as a manual when a mode is selected without a clutch that'd be great. Think like a SMG with a H pattern!
