Ride steady with auto launch worth the extra cost over perfect pass

Debating on perfect pass or Ridesteady. 2021 AR250. The only real differentiating feature from what I can see is the auto launch feature (couple of marginal things as well). Basically looking at $1295 for perfect pass or $1860 for ridesteady shipped. Has anyone used the auto launch, does it work well. Hard to want to pay a extra $500+ but my guess is it'll make my wife's life a bit easier if I just have to tell her full press the throttles and don't crash into another boat.
 
Thanks! I did check out that chain but didn't really see many reviews of actually using the auto launch. Also any other "big" difference to justify the extra spend
