Yes I agree I shouldn't rely on SRM but I personally like driving with it and it's a feature I paid for so I have no problem using it.

yah, a touch of throttle and gently engaging the clutch will net you a smooth transition into 2nd. especially when your a/c is on the flywheel will loose momentum quickly so you need to help it just a touch to not loose the momentum when you engage. think of tossing up an egg into the air and catching it on its way down while you match the downward speed with your arms and hands. otherwise the egg will crack in your hands.
my SRM is on all the time too. my G doesn't have SRM so heel&toe is all done manually.
