Pivot point on the floor, thus the pedal is floor mounted.

I found it harder to "heel" the gas pedal when the pedal is floor mounted cos the heel has to press near the pivot point which is stiffer.

That's why I use the right part of my forefoot to blip the gas.

Again, both way do the same as long as the downshift is done smoothly.

But regarding the concern from OP, I believe the thickness and material of the shoes play a big role of how we can 'feel' the pedal.
