Why not make the shifter adjust things like torque output to the wheels, or delay of applying torque (I recall a lot of new Tesla drivers burning through tires because the torque was instantaneous instead of the slight delay you get on a combustion engine)
I’m not a car guy but there are times where a heavier delay on the pedal or less torque to the wheels is more ideal.
