I can say I am a stick shift driver (S2000 fun car, Elcamino other fun car, IS300 time attack car) and I also own an electric car (Polestar 2). They are all fun in their own ways. The Polestar is our daily driver and saves us a shit load on gas. Also it is fast AF and will embarrass my racecar off the line, but it is driven for different reasons. Also not worrying about a hill start in traffic with a heavy clutch is nice.

There is the idea of the Conservative Ratchet. I do recommend looking it up. I believe it is even discussed in the 2nd thought video that this image is from. I'm not intelligent enough to describe it in text when there are people far better then me who have already done a far better job explaining it. But I do recommend it as a source of study.
