Driving test for manual gearboxes relevant in this day & age!

[Lancpudn]

Will there be any point in a learner driver taking lessons for a driving test in a manual car in this day & age? Will it become a lost art as the upcoming new world order of BEV cars doesn't need a clutch or a gearbox or an autobox.

I've often wondered if the car driving test today has changed to accommodate the 'One pedal' driving with brake regeneration or the examiner asking the learner those ' show me tell me' vehicle questions about the EV whether they know their kW's from their kWh's
