I disagree. Every car I have ever owned has been a stick (15 years of driving). It takes practice but you can shift smoothly. You just have to learn the optimum point of releasing the clutch and engaging the accelerator for each gear. A smooth shift is matching the engine speed with the speed in which the transmission is turning. It is not the same in each gear or under different types of driving. It just take practice. I was able to shift smoothly 75% of the time with my S2000 (given I daily drove that car for 3 years).
I will agree with the fact that shifting smoothly everytime is near impossible. Humans are not made to be perfect everytime. But shifting smoothly most of the time is definitely possible with concentration and learning your car.
