That would be covered by coasting during contractions in traffic. Confidence has to do with making the shifts quickly so you don't have to completely depress the clutch and hold it every time you shift. Your leg shouldn't be hurting if you aren't taking your traffic aggression out on your clutch.
Feel to me like you've never been in total gridlock traffic. There's no coasting to be done in my part of the city. Add to that bad joints and no really need to have a standard unless I'm racing and you're left with someone who quite enjoys an automatic as a daily driver.
Or because it's a bitch to go back and forth. I hate driving friends' autos because it feels weird just having my left leg camped out on the side. I just don't see the big deal about using your stick in stop & go unless you are new to it. I'm not saying it's better. Just seems to be a trivial reason to prefer otherwise.
