In my application, I'd be worried about transmission wear.

Reason being: I would likely be tempted to kill the engine while in gear and just key-on to restart (providing the speeds allow the TC to remain locked). Otherwise, I'm trying to see the advantage...

How would this react without rev-matching from Neutral?
