Good assumption, indeed. There are a number of conditions that must be met for the skip shift to activate (light throttle, certain speed, et al). These conditions seem to correlate to the EPA test cycle which is why Chevy does it. Makes for higher mpg and helps avoid the gas guzzler tax. When I was in stop and go traffic and wanted to shift to second gear, the skip shift was really annoying. I don't have that problem anymore!
