Hi, wkiernan -

To be clear, #2 should say "rolling to a stop" as well. The distinction being that rolling takes you significantly further than engine braking in fuel-cut mode. Which necessarily means you used less fuel up to the point of beginning the coast (assuming you're able to roll right up to the stop).

You're right that if you need to bleed speed faster than a pure neutral coast, decel fuel cut off mode (DFCO) is a good tactic in a non-hybrid.
