  It probably is, but technical the clutch is only required for getting the initial gear in. And even that can be ignored on some Cars.

    You’re totally correct! But I think this is like “cleaning dirt off motherboards using destilled water” where arguing with those who don’t know is pointless.

    Is that still the case for modern synchro cars?

      As i have not driven anything past 2010 i can only tell you that those didnt care, but you are probably creating more wear on the synchros. Espescially if you arent proficent in rev matching.

      Anything i have driven was verry happy with gear leaving, but less so with getting in.

      I probably get home without clutch and then it dosent really matter if i have to replace the clutch and the synchros :)
