I didn't say that I do this, I was just pointing out one of the "features", fully documented in the owner's manual, of the DCT and how it operates, which is what the OP was asking about.
I drive my DCT as if it were a manual, and I purposely select all gears all the time, upshifting and downshifting as necessary. I also don't have a tune, and I never do "pulls" from a standing start. Anecdotal evidence is that most cars with the SCH issue have tunes >500HP. You make it sound like doing this on the freeway to pass a car occasionally is going to automatically cause the SCH.
