When you're at a stop - Left foot clutch in, right foot brake on. When you're on a hill - Left foot clutch in, right foot brake on. When you're going - Right foot gas. At no point do I say that you should be at a stop while clutching and gassing. Riding the clutch is when you're "halfing" the clutch and gas with the goal of not using the brake and not moving forward or backwards. My point was that you should ALWAYS be in gear. That's not riding the clutch at all. And to clear the "terms" up, the only way you can be in neutral is when the shifter is not in gear. Clutching in while in gear is not a method of being in neutral as "neutral" is a transmission term.
