I own a earlier generation VW group DCT (2008 A3) and it is actually very smooth coming from a stop. The only time where it isn't as smooth is the downshift into 1st. Even then it is still very smooth and doesn't bug me at all. Amazing transmission for a daily driver.

I'm sure Toyota could design one, but is there a budget DCT that isn't a hot mess transitioning between stationary and moving? Even the excellent shifting GTI unit is sloppy there.
