I can believe that opinion for direct link shifters (i.e. Honda's and such) but not for cable shifters like DSM's. I would think that the flex of the cables would take out most of the extra torq created from the shorter throw.

Just as an aside, I have had a short throw shifter on my CRX (which is a direct link shifter) for over 3 years without any problems with the synchros. And yes, I quick shift with it. The throw of the shifter is about 5" at most.
