I agree that, yes, there is more to a transmission than feel.
But, when I (and many others) buy a sporty car, a slick shifting transmission is a critical area in deciding how fun the car is.
The z's transmission has no negative impact on things like lap times, and it doesn't appear to functionally inhibit the car at all. It just doesn't put a smile on your face the way an rx8 transmission does.
