Arrow Declutch using Paddle Shifters - Possible?

I searched but didn't find any answer.

On my C8, you could pull both paddles and basically enter neutral and free rev the engine.

I tried this on the LC but no dice. Is there another method?

Nope, just using the shift **** on the center console to shift to Neutral.

Checked the 2024 manual for reference in case it changed from the 2021, it doesn't seem any different.

The only thing I've found that you can do with the paddles is to put it in manual mode by hitting the left / down shift paddle. This will drop a gear and limit your upshifts to that gear. Each time you hit the right / up shift paddle, it adds one gear to that stack. To take it out of manual mode, hold the right / up shift paddle for 1-1.5 seconds and it will take you out of manual mode. Point being, you don't need to mess with the shift lever to put it in manual mode, it can all be done on the paddles.

another thing is if you're in Drive + manual mode, you can go back to automatic by holding the up-shift paddle.

It would have been something cool to have.
