How drastic the timing of the shift is is subjective, as you pointed out it is minor compared to a manual shift, however you are then acknowledging it's existence, and so am I, even though yes it is slight.

I'm not sure what track you go on, but my experience is on a really curvy track. Regardless this is a YMMV situation, depending on you, and who you are driving with, etc.. I just made it a point b/c I feel the combination of the down and upshifts may not be handled as well by the ECU as a human would.

I'm not referring at all to straight line street/drag racing.
the "lag" on a AT shift is still miles quicker than a manual shift.

if you stomp on the brakes and down downshift with it there is throttle cut a bit. but if you down shift with braking the rev match keeps the RPMs up and then you're right back on it. it's not hard and works very well.
