The benefit of an automatic is that you don’t really have to think about it. You put your car into park, (most people don’t even pull the parking brake) and walk away. Easy.
However, while many will find hill starts frustrating, it’s because they find manual driving frustrating. You have to think, to feel, to react, not just hit a button or switch to “D” and hit the accelerator. Personally, I would love a manual in my car, for its many other benefits, but I do understand why automatics are the majority in America. You just let the car do the thinking for you.
