There is a lot more to explain and there are other gurus more knowledgeable in  explaining the quirks and wonders of SMGII transmission (they're hiding sumwhr) as i am still in the learning curve myself <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite8" alt=":D" title="Big Grin    :D" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":D" /> ... as for your question as to why the reluctance of the car to upshift holding the gear for a long moment ... i'm assuming that you were on auto mode or 'C' mode when that happens?anyways here are the link for SMGII technical manuals for your enjoyment and will definitely answer most of your questions if not all :top:<a href="http://jasoncampagna.com/SMG.pdf" target="_blank">http://jasoncampagna.com/SMG.pdf</a></blockquote>
