I get that the car will automatically match RPMs, but I'm not sure where the benefit is in that. Does it mean I'm not supposed to brake since the engine will essentially slow me down with the downshift? I normally brake a bit...since that's what I'm used to. Thinking maybe I should just not drive in sport mode haha

The benefits are you don't have to match the revs on downshifts so it gives a perfect downshift everytime. I would not use this as your brakes however. Its more useful when coming up to a turn you have to slow down for. You drop it gear and brake (using brakes)
