Its an F1 technology transfer, so I don't think its really a bodge. It only changes down when the gear is too high and doesn't change up so you choose to keep the revs high. You can also paddle down if you want a lower gear going into a corner, but it will protect the engine by not changing down until the gear will fit the revs (i.e you cant change down to 2nd at 80).
