Yes, if you punch it hard from coasting at a low rpm, there will be a slight lag in throttle response. If you ease the throttle, that lag is less evident. Sport/Manual (lever to left, not just shifting in D) modes help with this too.
As for the paddles being mounted on the wheel instead of the column, I agree with you there. However, I've grown accustomed to using both the paddles and the shift lever when paddles aren't easily accessible. While autocrossing though, I tend to downshift before I have to turn the wheel excessively so it's a non-issue except for low speed turns in city driving.
