That has caught me out a few times, and I would say could actually be
dangerous.

Is there a reason you can't think ahead and change down? Any "danger"
isn't from the turbo's effective range of operation, but from a driver
failing to read the road.

Yes of course, a good driver will do that, and I do, but it could catch
some people out. And you cannot always predict what will happen, on a
roundabout for example.

blink Did you really say that?
