Actually there is, when you get to drive a powerfull car and want to shift fast without upseting the driveline and spin the tires. It takes a speed and smoothness to do it. Powershifting is also hard for some peeps to do, shifting without clutch is another way of shifting, so.... yeah there is a certain amount of skill involved!!!

I don't know about that Traction control helping his launches, I raced a Z06 and when he tried it with the traction control on his launch was awful, he said it was like the engine shut off, he shut the TC off and did a lot better.

Traction is the grip that your car’s tires have on the road, which is needed to accelerate, turn and brake. If your car, or more specifically, your tires have little or no grip; your car will not accelerate, turn or brake and will skid. Traction control devices in the car will help prevent this loss of grip so your tires will have traction to accelerate, turn and brake.
