    From BMW on SMG II:

    Double Declutching
    To prevent a fast downshift from upsetting the M3’s composure in any way, the SMG II will
    automatically double clutch and raise engine speed on downshifts to guarantee that engine
    RPM and road speed are perfectly matched before the lower gear engages. The result is
    quicker, smoother downshifts with less wear on the clutch and less chance of upsetting the
    car’s chassis.

    So, who still thinks double declutching on a syncro'd transmission is a waste?
