Do you have the option to cease communication with this person? :lol:I was always told deceleration is the worst thing you can do to an engine. Engine is made to accelerate, brakes are made to slow down.
Engine braking uses air compression to slow the vehicle down. One step further would be a Jacobs Brake; opening the exhaust valve at full compression to maximize braking effort through the drive train.
Not so practical on RWD cars as when the weight transfers forward, your maximum possible braking effort is reduced.
