I have never used the paddles with PDK/DCT or ZF8 . . . for kicks and giggles I was just out driving; put transmission in automatic mode; pulled in left paddle and held. Shifted down from D6 to S3 in a nanosecond.
Still no interest in using the paddles over shifter, but a really cool feature for (rare) occasions when I am in automatic mode and, as you suggested earlier, have the desire to make an aggressive pass or similar occasion.
