Rev matching, heel toe, basically any driving technique other than the basics to operate a vehicle are bad m'kay?

It's more about pointing out that all the advanced sports driving techniques have little or no place on the public road, they are superfluous to requirements. They distract from the real issues of driving on the public road.
Most importantly it is definitely NOT what you should be teaching newbies just learning to drive stick.
It is not "me" who is right, all the advanced driving schools that deal with public road driving use the same or similar systematic approaches. It is used by ambulance drivers and police pursuit drivers. They don't heel and toe or rev match either as there is no need and it just adds workload. For that you'll need to go to track school or rally school.
It's also not "slow" in traffic if done correctly it is much faster by being smooth, progressive and flowing rather than aggressive and punchy.
If you actually go and take some advanced lessons it will surprise you just how much progress you can make without all the fuss of playing around with the gearbox.
