You're talking two different things now. If you want slow shifts or to control the actual shift with a clutch pedal, then sure, it's not the same. If you want the change gears quickly and determine when that happens, then the paddles do that very well. If you want to drift or do certain things that require some coordination of the shifter and clutch pedal, then sure, a manual is needed. I can't think of any situation where I'm unable to do what I need to with the paddle shifters, during daily driving or canyon runs.
