It is ironic that many of the "older" people refer to MT as a "standard" because not that long ago the MT was the norm and At was the exotic option. I personally have to make a conscious effort not to call them standards anymore because anybody under the age of 50 or so will just look at you with a blank stare if you use the term.
True, I can see this happening with electric vehicles too, we’re always saying “Electric Vehicle” whereas 20 or so years from now the petrol vehicle will be the exotic/anomaly and you’ll have to stop yourself saying EV….
