That pucker factor is the appeal. I don't want anything that takes away that uniquely 911 feeling somewhere in the middle of the corner of "oh, crap...every instinct is telling me to lift throttle, but I d@mn sure better not. It's all on me." It's a magical and terrifying thing in air-cooled-era cars that are devoid of aids. And it's still there in the 996.

The post that the OP quoted probably overstates things (sure, the car doesn't drive itself when you have the nannies) but the general sentiment of disliking electronic aids is a valid one.
