M6 Skipping gears

Nope, I do it all the time. 1st, 3rd, 6th. Just depends on if I am rolling down hill or expecting to stop soon. Just don't stick with the same

When I get on the freeway in the morning I have to merge quickly across about 6 lanes to the left as cars coming up behind me are merging towards the right as the freeway splits shortly ahead of where I enter. That means I get on in 4th gear and in a good part of the torque curve, make my moves and as soon as I am comfortably over to the other part of the freeway I shift from 4th to 6th skipping 5th and back off a little. I don't see how this could cause any problems.
