For me it's more helpful to have it than to not. When I merge onto the freeway I accelerate up to and stay in 5th to focus on matching the flow of traffic. Then I shift to 6th. But if traffic is really hectic and I have passengers to talk to, sometimes I forget to shift to 6th. It's usually not til there's a quiet moment when I notice the engine noise after cruising at highway speeds in 5th for a good 30 minutes! It's only March and I've done this at least twice this year. Also in city driving I'll rarely forget whether I'm in 3rd vs 5th or 4th vs 6th but it happens when I have other things on my mind and I only find out after I've mis-shifted.
