That said, I've done it on E-throttle cars. It's just a bit slower on some of the worse throttle-hangers. And it's easy to do it going down through the gears with a little heel-toe when slowing down...

Exactly. My focus hangs the revs FOREVER when shifting. And if the engine isn't up to temperature, it won't even consider idling below 2000RPM if the clutch is pressed.
Makes trying to take off on those cold mornings very hard when I'm trying to shift!
