I look forward to loving and/or hating all these features when my car purchases catch up to the current timeline in a decade or two.

I could see the hill-hold being a good feature for anyone learning on a manual. But then again, being a novice driver and sitting nervously at a red light on a steep hill, with a way too close Ferrari or whatever right on your rear bumper...learning how to smoothly launch out of that (without red lining it) really puts some hair on your chest. Personally, I think being able to roll back and forth is part of the fun of having a manual.
