Handbrake or not with MT

There is an interesting conversation on another forum that I festered about using a handbrake or not on hill starts with a MT. I know how to use the method if I’m in a serious pickle and can’t take any chance of possibly rolling back but other than that I never need the handbrake to start on a hill with MT. Apparently many in America learned and use this handbrake method exclusively and in Europe it seems to be the norm.

I’m just curious what my friends over here do. Some folks have questioned that it is an issue of coordination, though I think it is a learned preference.
