Plus, VAG has refined DCT tech so it can be done. And GM already has already dipped their toes-in-the-water with the tech on their Corvette product.
I am going to use a baseball analogy here

Why swing for the fences when a few singles will get you the same score?

Sure the homer wows the crowd but how many strikeouts did you have trying to get it?

The singles improve the batting average increase confidence and create a team feeling over individual performance.

Heads roll when you don't put winners on the field and jobs are lost when you take expensive swings at the plate and strike out.

No one wants to lose a great job in the major leagues to ride the busses in the minors.
