I didn't say it's a prerequisite, although in my book it's purist enthusiast's preference.
However I guarantee you that Kia had more enthusiasts in mind while building their 6MT G70 than BMW making G20's without MT option whatsoever in USA at least and instead focusing on all-digital gauge clusters, roomier than F30 back seats and other non-enthusiast creature comforts.
