yes it does. Not only reduce the wear and tear on the clutch and transmission, it also reduce the stress on the rest of the driven train and suspension. Just imagine someone drops down one gear or two at high rpm without any throttle, that engine braking (jerk) puts stress on the whole driven train and suspension.
