    Handbrake start is only if you sucked at driving a manual ;-)

      Depends on how steep the hill is and how precise you need to be with your position. Parallel parking in San Francisco almost requires the handbrake.

        You can use one foot for the gas and brake at the same time. I’ve drove manuals for over 20 years. Including split shift commercial trucks that didn’t have hand brakes.
