They knew they would face criticism for that choice.

Part of their reasoning was take rate for the manual on the C7 Vette was 26%

From Corvette Blogger:

"Of the nearly 200,000 C7s produced, the total take-rate for manual transmissions was 50,611 or 26.55%. The low-sounding percentage is one of the talking points that Tadge & Co use to justify their switch to a one transmission strategy on the C8."
