So no clutch wear takes place once rolling? At every shift when the clutch is released, the clutch/pressure plate/flywheel instantly grab, no slip at all?

I'm saying there is some wear (however small) everytime you pull a gear, the harder and more aggressive the shift (up or down) the more wear the clutch sees.
