It does get more difficult over time. Soon enough there wont even be a spot to physically fit the gear shift without having to yank out some crucial i-Drive thing. Also, everything seems to be more and more tied to the automatic transmission in terms of traction control, e-diffs, and a boat load of driving automation. Maybe you can yank it all out and go back to the 90's in terms of driving tech, but that may be too large a penalty for some to take.
