It is geared toward making it more easy to learn to drive stick. I personally find it bothersome while drive as it randomly hangs revs and just doesn't always act as I expect, so I keep it off. Shifting in the car feels well sorted, I really like throwing through gears in this thing.
I've heard the manual is quite nice from the reviews I've seen. The rev hang is probably emissions related since the WRX and even the new Civic have it as well. The new corollas are pretty slick imo so it's cool you got one! Someone where I work has one with the fancy wing and it looks so slick.
