Anyone do it consciously or unconsciously?

I picked up this dumb habit back in the high school days driving the ol 89 Camry and i catch myself still doing it in the f30. I wonder is it really harmful? My Camry went till 300k without a tranny failure and my 03 330ci has gone 150k with this habit on original trans and original oil. I shifted like this every day for years. Just curious...
