Not sure how smooth it is on a z as I haven't driven the manual but what you say is true in theory just in other cars I have driven it seems 1st is always very picky about matching the engine speed perfectly vs the other gears. Really it doesn't seem worth it. Not like these cars don't have enough power to resume accel from 2nd.
