They'd look much less "stupid" to the uninitiated.

Why not just institute a rule that says that throttle stops may not be timer-controlled, only by a switch on the shifter? When a stop comes on or off with the gear change, it's a lot less noticeable to the spectators. I suspect people will have their stop come on immediately on release of the trans brake button, and turn back off with the 1-2 shift.
