Honestly, I have no data to back this theory up... other than an observation that folks on this board with 6MT seem to be the only ones overheating to the point of limp mode (so far!)...

WStar made the reasonable point that it should be rev limited even with the clutch in... my car's in the shop so I can't test that, but I seem to remember that mine shot above 7,500 w/ clutch in... anyone willing to check?
That does make some sense but when I'm doing something like running the Dragon, I'm in manual mode and "shifting" just about as much as anyone with a 6MT would be so it still would seem like a bit of a mystery.
