Very well thought out post.
Do you or does anyone yet know if the AT does actually have greater drivetrain losses? If it has full lock up from 2-6, it should lose no more power through the drivetrain than the MT once out of first. The difference in speed may be 100% due to gearing.
Moreover, it's quite possible that the shift speed can be adjusted electronically so that it will shift even faster, meaning that with a tune, the difference between MT and AT may shrink to virtually nothing (and if they had added a 7th gear, it might very well have been faster than the MT...).
