It doesn't help the guy understand what's going on in there by omitting the info the dude was trying to explain.

It's obvious the OP does his homework and has a vested interest in knowing what's going on.

Therefore, your advice isn't very sound and that's specifically what I am underlining here. Let's let the dude fuck his clutch up a tiny bit faster than MBT, as long as he learns more from it, what's the big deal? He'll be more in tune with what is ACTUALLY going on. I've taught scores of people how to drive manual. I am one of the biggest advocates to this and I have a knack for teaching. I also don't accept pandering and political correctness- it's not the hardest concept of the world to figure out that the pedal only actuates a slave cylinder with a very tactile on/off biting point.

Clutches and clutch assembly items are wear items. Don't forget that.
