I think it's misleading for non-enthusiasts. A DCT is a manual transmission (clutch vs torque converter) that uses electronic controls to mimic the convenience of an automatic. It doesn't need to "mimic the performance of a manual" because DCT boxes and modern automatics can shift faster than someone can in a traditional manual trans. Buying a manual today is about the experience, not the performance.
