Even when synchro takes care of matching revs, it is doing so under duress, and higher reliance on the synchro to match revs for up/down shifting would result in wear there. So don't cast caution to air and be a brute when shifting.
Shift points are generally mentioned in the owners manual. Following the exact same shift points is fun - it lets the driver use the vehicle very smoothly. However, some feel those shift points are excessive. If your driving style is not thay peppy, you could use ~80% of those shifting speeds.
