Yes, nobody like sitting in stop/go traffic with a manual no matter how much the manual zealots say they do..hahahaha
Call me "nobody". I prefer it to an automatic. Why? I hate the creeping that an auto does, and having to quell it by constantly shifting from drive to neutral. I'd rather just deal with the stick and clutch to accomplish the same thing. Been doing it for 47 years, never bothered me a bit, even when I've had some brutal commutes with a lot of stop & go traffic. I jump into the wife's car and curse at the automatic in the same situations.
As for ACC, I absolutely love it. Yes, there are some quirks with slowing cars ahead and certain situations that can confuse it, but that's ok - I'm very familiar with how to deal with them and don't mind at all. It's there to assist my driving, not take over it entirely.
