I can guarantee anyone who has never had to pay for a prematurely worn clutch would not do that. When I had a new 2015 WRX the C & D test launched at 5000 rpm for a 0-60 time multiple times at the suggestion of Subaru engineers. They said it was fine so then why does Subaru or any other manufacturer refuse an early burned clutch as a wear item? Are they thinking it's ok as long as you can afford to consume clutches?
This is one reason car mags are so influential on people's car purchases, the stats (artificially derived to look better on paper). This is why you should take that stuff for what's it's worth, adverjournalism.
