Well it's true that one might not
need to remove the tunnel frequently but I am working on a speedometer gear set for an NV4500 which requires I access it regularly as I work on it. Also, it very convenient to be able to remove the fill plug from above and fill the trans through the shifter hole while watching the level at the plug. Then there's access to the front u-joint through the tunnel cover also and including the top cover of the trans, that's a lot of things which could or should be easily accessible. Working on any of those things, should not also require working on the front seat.
