IMHO you are spot on. In 44 years of driving mostly 911s the one thing that is constant is the shifter has always been a vague mechanism. I highly recommend going into each gear while downshifting.

PS I don't know if Sachs or any one else does testing on their clutches to destruction. However you must consider that manufacturers are doing everything they can to reduce clutch disk weight to reduce mass and inertia in order to speed up shift speed and reduce wear on the synchros.
