I agree with "to each their own". My very first experience with paddle shifters on the Z was on a track. I was completely befuddled. My shifts were terrible, and my lines were all over the place. I even hit the windshield wiper stalk unnecessarily. Of course, the GoPro was right above one, making it bend horribly

I got back into my own 6MT a few hours later on the same track and felt like I was home

My wife really wants a 7AT Z now (it was her 6MT Z originally). I think it would be a great idea - I can get more practice with those paddle shifters
