The quest for the "perfect shift", is in itself the very error it claims to be "correcting". It denies the perfect shift(action) as existent, rather claiming that it "depends" on certain "conditions" in order to exist/happen. In other words it claims "one needs what I'm selling you" in order to exist/happen, and there's no other way.
So is it any wonder all manners of shifting aids and devices keep changing and getting more complex ? It's to keep the buyer like a donkey chasing the dangling carrot on a stick in front of them. "I'm getting there .... I'm getting there .... some day I'll get that darn carrot and be rewarded" ! Empty promises, hah !
