Of course you have to have the proper gas to clutch ratio, Unless you mean just never using the brake. If it's steep enough, your foot still has to move from the brake to the gas. If the hill is steep, and the person behind you is riding your ass, you may very well roll back enough to hit them in the time it takes to move your foot from brake to gas. Which is why you'd need to use the hand brake to give yourself the time to move your foot to gas, then get the right ratio, and release the hand brake.
There is a bite point where you don't need to use the brake at all, just clutch and accelerator in perfect harmony. With practice you'll be able to stay perfectly still, or inch forwards or backwards even on steep hills.
It does get tiring if you have to hold it too long though.
I could see this being possible, but it seems like mlg meant something different. They were talking about letting off the clutch before taking your foot off the brake. Your solution seems applicable in more cars, but not universally applicable in any situation. I could definitely see this being a pain for a long light, though.
Nah he hasn't mentioned using the brake at all. It's only for short stops though.
