I am really intrigued that Yamaha decided to add a mechanical clutch to their new trials bike.

So... the clutch is not yet dead!
 
This bike was initially introduced years ago to the European market. Not sure though if it ever made it to production. We had lots of discussion on the clutch. Can’t imagine how you could get around not having one on a trials bike but I’m sure at some point they will figure it out.

For rough, rocky offroad climbs, I always wished my Alta had a clutch so I could smooth out the the torque a bit and zap up things a bit easier. Makes total sense on a trials bike.
