Basically vroom vroom commercials for fancy cars made some people equate paddle shifters with CVT.
Most people with automatics are just used to R, P, N, and D lol.

I understood that part of it. Most of the marketing I remember were all about it not having "shift shock" or gears. I was kind of suggesting, in my own way, for someone to educate themselves on what will likely be the most prevalent technology in a few years. Cvt does not equal paddle shifters. Thats all I was getting at.
