If I wanted to drive a car like manual, I wouldn't buy a fucking auto and then use the paddle shifters, I'd buy a fucking manual.

So if the OP is looking at AT's I'm assuming they dont want to spend their entire time driving it like a MT and by your own admission (see bold) the AT is not quite as responsive.

The AT is not terrible but when I did a test drive it was just enough to be annoying for me.
