Hi Jim,
Apparently I'm a little dense here. Why or what situation would you need to heel and toe? I don't think I've needed to do that once. Oh, stopping uphill? 209

It's for down shifting.

And I do not have any problem with doing it in mine.

Exactly, it's for down shifting while braking into a corner so you match revs and get into the right gear to exit the corner without shocking the drive train and possibly upsetting the cars balance at a critical time.

And it sounds cool too!

Because you really cannot drive them the way they are intended without utilizing heal toe.
