more idling gear meshes is an issue w/constant mesh transmissions, true, though with computer precision doing the actual engagements, I think sliding mesh should be revisited.
more gears=more clutch wear? nah. If you get a lower first gear out of the deal you will actually save more clutch as getting rolling is where the wear is at normally (and where %100 of the wear is at if it shifts automatically).
