It's about cost. Its cheaper to design and make one mechanism to fit everything. And, it's about what works. If it works well and no one is complaining, there is no reason to change it.

That being said, I do not like the way mercedes auto shifts left and right. Also to note. The bmw smg shifter shifts with -ve being forward and +ve being backward. Not all auto cars that shift up/down are like this. Some have +ve as forward and -ve as backward. It takes getting used to.

Anyways, I prefer my cars manual.
