Buying this is like fighting with one arm tied to the back before starting. I like hot hatches. But they should be simple, cheap and practical. If you take these out of the equation they make little sense to me.

Sense isn't computed in hot hatches in first place.
You know there are FWD lovers who just dies for these things.
It's like a race car available, it's just as pointless GT3 RS perhaps, just less "cool" to the normal eye.
I don't mind them, and I'm not sure I would get one if I could. Not specifically these, just a too-hot hatch in general. They perhaps don't make sense, but either sportscars really do tbh.
