The name they chose is a bit misleading when used in the same context as a dual-clutch.
The MCT does have multiple clutches, however, they are all connected to the same input shaft. The clutches are used to vary the amount of slip for comfort driving and/or takeoff.
A dual-clutch is more like two separate transmissions with two input shafts and a common output drive.
There's a lot more to it than that but the key takeaway is the MCT is not at all like a dual-clutch transmission, and as far as I know, the only cars that MB makes that use dual-clutch are the *A45 (A/CLA/GLA) and the GT variants.

You can get your 43 up to 2200rpm? My 450 cuts at about exactly 2000
