I agree with this, in diesel application, mostly towing on interstate, or anywhere that steep inclines are not involved.
IMO, the gassers have much more to gain, 8-9-10 speeds, especially the 6.4 Ram, to keep them in the ideal rpm, uphill/downhill towing.
I've no idea how many more moving parts are required, possibly affecting reliability, comparing a modern 6-speed to a newer 10-speed. If what you have, such as the aisin 6-speed, Cummins diesel, works great, no question reliable, for 30K+ combined towing, many would be hesitant to change to the unknown 9-10 speed.
Technology will always continue, time proven, to be for the best! It will be the cost of replacing older tow vehicles, with the latest tech TVs, that will keep many from moving forward.
