I downloaded today. "Auto" does seem to get me much closer to finished. I shoot a Nikon D810 and find myself decreasing Highlights and increasing Shadows on most images. Auto does this very well. Seems to increase exposure a little too much.
I will still manually adjust "keepers" but "auto" is great for a quick run-through.
"Texture" seems to be closer in use to older "clarity", current clarity bumps up contrast AND saturation too much for most of my images. I can see a mild use of "texture", + & -, for many uses.
