Are they though?
The more I’ve read about human psychology - particularly about “flow” - the more valuable manually driven cars seem.
Similarly to how many people are actually happiest / have the highest sense of self-worth while at work (even though they’d scream otherwise), a lot of people are able to relax and think freely while driving. And in general, humans seem to enjoy having control over G-force (whether jumping off of cliffs, flying planes, riding roller coasters, driving...)
