In heavy traffic I get tired of driving period. Having to also use the clutch in bumper to bumper traffic is no more painful/tedious than having to use the brake/gas on an auto. Now if the auto managed to pilot itself in heavy traffic and I didn't have to touch the brake/gas and tire my right foot, then I could see a benefit. Otherwise, the gas/brake in heavy traffic is tiring on the auto as well. Adding my left foot to the mix just balances my leg usage.
