Yeah, I see my 2021 Seat Leon FR PHEV hatchback as an appliance, it takes me where I want to go, I am only licensed to drive an automatic, but do so well.
Now, after two and a half years of driving, I am thinking about learning the paddle shifter, but eh, it just seems like another distraction.
Wow there are actually different licenses for manual or automatic in your jurisdiction? Where I live you get a license to drive either type of car.
There are different licenses for commercial vehicles here, but I am pretty sure they are for both manual and automatic.
Oh absolutely, not only that we have separate licenses for motor bikes, the standard car (max weight is 3500kg, including cargo, passengers and possible trailer), and several more:
Here is a list of categories of licenses in use in Sweden:

Here are some more details about driving licenses in Sweden, the restrictions section is interesting.

My standard B license comes with the following restrictions:
Other than those, it is a standard license.
Please feel free to ask if you have further questions about driving and driving licenses in Sweden, I passed my test almost 3 years ago at 35 so it is still fresh in my mind and probably still valid knowledge.
It actually makes a lot of sense. We in the states are way too flippant about licensing drivers.
