It's not a feature. It's driving your car wrong and trying to break it.
ended up slowing down for a red light next to a new corvette a few years ago. guy clearly didn't understand how to drive stick, he started downshifting from 6th for the red light, and never rev-matched. by the time the car jolted into 2nd, i was crying for the car.
