As I understand it, a capability of DSG control circuits is interrupting engine power for the few hundred milliseconds of a shift. Without that, I'd fear for the conventional transmission shifting under WOT.
All bmws have the + and - mode in the shifter. This is no different except you do not have to take your hands off the wheel. As a manual driver I actually rather "manually" shift with my shifter though.
I do think it's a grass is always greener scenario for paddle shifters.
