They say it is coming for Honda applications.
To me, this is a LOT of money to add something onto your car that does what the driver should be able to learn how to do.
All gear boxes, including this one has "guides" to assist you in finding the proper place to put that shifter. You have the left and right side rails and of course, you have the springs which hold it in the neutral position.
The left guide rail tells you exactly where the 1/2 gate is. Keep it there and that's all you'll get - 1st or 2nd gear.
If you allow the spring to hold the stick where it wants, you have the 3/4 gate. Let the spring do its thing and get used to how it feels and that's all you'll get - 3rd and 4th gear. Once you get used to this spring, fast shifts up or down is no problem.
The right guide rail tell you exactly where the 4/5 gate is. Keep it there and that's all you'll get - 5th or 6th.
And then the reverse gate is foolproof. It has one extra detent.

The only time I've ever came close to miss shifting was going around a big corner, at high speed (130 kph), going from 3rd into 4th... started to go into 2nd but caught myself.

Only reason this happened was that I was not cupping the shift knob properly.

Read this, even if you've been driving that long... you might pick up something useful:
