Code has been eliminated completely as a requirement for amateur radio
since 2 years ago, and its not coming back. I have a full call with no
code.

While that is true in your country, it is not yet true here. The
international conference simply left it up to each individual country as to
whether or not to require it.
the conference ended the intertional requireent Dee as the FCC has
started the paperwork with stated intent of doing the same here

No, but it darned sure wouldn't hurt to make sure they could drive
something with a standard transmission.

Would you have 1000 people learn to drive a standard
transmission even though only one person out of those
1000 people benefits from it? The cost/benefit ratio
is extremely high.

Someone skilled in driving a vehicle with a manual transmission and
actually
using it can reap a number of performance benefits. These include
improved
gas mileage, better passing performance, better performance in hilly
terrain, etc. If people were required to learn how to drive vehicles with
manual transmissions, more of them might actually choose to drive such
vehicles.

Here most cars run on petrol rather than gas still.

In American English, "gas" is short for gasoline. Gasoline is the same as
petrol. The term petrol is generally not used here.
