whether a car is AT or MT has little impact on learning the general awareness required to operate a vehicle on public roads intelligently.

also, my own personal preference is that having an automatic car for stop and go traffic is a pain in the ass, i would rather be forced to work a little harder to get my car to move rather than have the car move forward on its own during a brain fart moment.
