Nice review! The slow-speed thing could also just be experience. At first, I thought my CTX700 DCT was "sluggish" too, and I missed a clutch. But once I got used to using a bit of rear brake on slow speed maneuvers, it's as responsive as anything else. Not using a clutch and doing slow speed means little throttle, and that feels VERY slow. Putting some resistance on via the rear brake allows some use of throttle and the slow speed issues go away.
