This is particularly important when trail-braking during hard cornering where if you shift too abruptly you can upset the car and loose traction in the rear.
Stopping is just a variation of decelerating.
You can also decelerate using JUST rev-matching and no braking...
In this car I use the extended gas pedal and instead of heel-toe I use both balls of my right foot.
Big toe on brake, right side on gas to blip.
In my Porsche the gas pedal hinges from the floor so I actually use the heel of my foot to blip the throttle.

I dunno, I don't blip when I downshift, doesn't jerk or anything
