I kick the shifter to Ds all the time for braking and to keep rpm above 1200 for fuel cutoff economy. I use L more than I thought I would as well for the same reason.
As for the air cond anchor I use the auto climate control so mine is on all the time but I don't feel it drags the car down that much.
Will weld for beer.

Regenerative braking on a petrol powered car that lives at 3000rpm anyway.
Uh. Why?

Downshifting...
My Mirage has no braking even at 6000rpm. At all. Its comical actually. I can throw 3rd gear doing 120km/h and not even feel it pull back. Heck 1st barely does it. Stupid modern low friction tiny engine.
