    the vast majority of people have no idea how an automatic/CVT of any kind works or what the internal parts are.

    So I explained automatic transmission has an automated clutch, but sorry for explaining that.

      Ok dude. This doesn’t change what I said. Your explanation is irrelevant to people’s understanding prior to that and your pedantry looking to make yourself right. When people talk about a car with a clutch, we overall assume manual transmission. You want pedantry? Next time say “clutch pack” or “clutches”, seeing as traditional automatics don’t have a singular clutch. So you can at least be right in your explanation.
