Let me translate that.

Being a competitor of course they think their decision is right and anyone else makign a different one is wrong. They have to say that.

So by "Engineered in" they really mean "Didn't hide from driver the transfer of energy". They think this was the wrong decision, and for people looking for a status symbol they would be right. If it were going into the 550 or 335 I might even agree.

Remember Audi has a different target market. They are more after the "it just works" crowd and less after the entusiast crowd.
