most of the time, they aren't necessary. At one time, Chevrolet, in order to comply with CAFE standards, forced Corvette owners to skip from 1st gear to 4th gear under normal acceleration. The transmission had some kind of lockout that didn't release unless the car was under hard acceleration.
Still do actually. I know its a common modification in the Corvette community to remove that.
