I'm sure you think that a very pithy comment. Now try it again in English.

'in any given gear' is irrelevant, when you can choose your gear.

Thanks from proving once more you can't follow a discussion.

Let me see if I can put it in terms even you can understand.

Regardless of the gear chosen, the peak acceleration *in that gear* will
occur when the engine is developing peak torque.

Are we still doing this? What you've said there is true, however it is
not the way to accelerate the car the fastest.
