(MT question) Who honestly uses 1st gear besides on a hill?

If you're not going to bother with 1st, then why even bother with 2nd? I just determine which road has the fastest speed limit along my route and start in

If you're not going to bother with 1st, then why even bother with 2nd? I just determine which road has the fastest speed limit along my route and start in the gear appropriate for that speed. No shifting required, so you don't have to hear that clunky Z gearbox.
