But hey on the bright side it's been confirmed and we can put this one to rest!

At the track in a SS, you'd shift at 6400rpm (or very close to that) and the engine speed will stay there during the shift with the intake throttle full open in order to maximize intake manifold pressure / air flow so you can get full power immediately after the shift is completed.

Without this feature, you'd typically back off the accelerator pedal during a shift, intake throttle will close (reducing intake manifold pressure and air flow), so when shift is completed it will take longer to get back to full power.

This algorithm is a good idea, especially on boosted applications!

I hope Al and team answer all the questions in this subforum with that level of detail!
