Preserving transmission synchros

So high RPM shifting isn't really bad for the synchros so long as they are executed with care by not slamming the gear and fast shifting and basically just easing

So high RPM shifting isn't really bad for the synchros so long as they are executed with care by not slamming the gear and fast shifting and basically just easing into next gear. I searched about this online and it seems really only 3 things are bad for synchros:

- Skip shifting
- Fast shifting
- Hard shifting

The fact that the 4th to 5th up shift remains smooth even at high RPMs probably means I didn't do too much damage or caused any major addtl wear
