Prevailing wisdom tells me that Toyota has shifted funds that were allocated toward brand new V8 engines and performance cars into fighting off disruption in the EV market. We are in the twilight years of high displacement gasoline performance vehicles, and it's just not strategically viable to jump onto this slowly sinking ship.

The rumor about the CGI was actually started by one of Tada's friend, he just shared the IG link. Don't think he ever said a manual was coming anytime soon, but rather they were testing a manual and this was even confirmed in the interviews.
You could be right, we shall see.
