In theory, a reasonably competent stick driver could watch the tach and learn the best shift points for performance or economy fairly quickly.
In practice, I agree that the DSG is a great match for the TDI engine and a stopwatch proves that its lightning-fast shifts make for lower 0-60 times.
But I still went with the stick for various reasons, some of them rational, some more "emotional." But the biggest was that the DSG is a very complex system whose bugs have not been entirely worked out.
