Thankfully, Engineering Explained has created a video answering the above questions and putting to rest any myths you may have heard around the topic.
The video caption says: "Ultimately, manual transmissions are designed with flexibility in mind. Inherently they allow for choosing any gear at any time, but that doesn't necessarily mean you should."
