I actually wondered the same thing, and the whole one hand thing I don't know if I buy. A lot of people drive with one hand, I know I do when I drive standard (i.e. drive with just my left hand* on the wheel... all times): Fox Drive in Edmonton, winding through Kelowna or those weavy roads in BC, CA-17 going from San Jose to Santa Cruz and so on, it feels weird to have 2 hands on the steering wheel again since I switched back to auto.
* most times these days, I just have 2 fingers on the bottom of the steering wheel... probably not ideal, I don't even know why...
