It's the age of the car. Go try to find a 64GB disk drive on the shelves 
today.  As technology progressed, more gears got easier to build in, so they 
did. It makes the ride smoother (on an automatic) and more efficient on a 
manual.

I tended to skip gears when I had a manual transmission, often going from 2 
to 4 for example.
