My understanding is that this transmission is SMG-like. Confusing is that Merc chose the description "doubleclutching" of a single clutch. So the mistake for a real double clutch transmission seems to be intentional...

Indeed in the wrong section.
Should be moved to the M3 vs ... section. There is a similar discussion on:

Yeah, I figured the "doubleclutching" stuff was put out there just to confuse people, so that's not what threw me off. That made me laugh actually.
What's throwing me off is the actual name of the system: MCT. Where is the "multi-clutch" in this system exactly? What's meant by that?
