I certainly wouldn't want to be bouncing off of a 9500rpm rev limiter with my very expensive engine if I had something that prevents that.
I didn't like the way it kills the power when you shift...it made me shift slower than ever. I'd get it back into gear and wait for the power to return...that's poo. I didn't mess with the timer to improve that and for some reason I was missing gears like nuts and grinding them. I decided it wasn't worth ruining a transmission to fool with it any longer. So I went back to good ole lift to shift until a few weeks ago.

true the rpm zings up when you powershift manually but that also helps the torque when you're going into the next gear, really makes the car jump and go.
