Yep.
Unless you go all the way and

To see really big FE improvements, you need to go a long way with aero mods.

That's low.

I'm experimenting with P&G in the city w/engine-on coasting in neutral during the glides

P&G is definitely something to try out - though it may not work if you can't accelerate efficiently enough.
With the engine on during the glide, you need to accelerate using considerably less than double your constant-speed fuel flow to see any improvement.
My car won't do that, but others have had more luck

highway P&G in drive, though I might stop that since it seems riskier with how fast other cars and semis travel.

Yeah, I won't even try it on our crowded highways.
People don't expect you to be constantly slowing down and accelerating. Especially if they're on CC it'd be a nuisance to them.
P&G around 55mph would also get you really slow at the end of a glide.
