It's a habit where you don't even think, you just do it. It's programmed in your subconscious mind. Which means you are doing it without knowing it!
I suspect many mix rev match and throttle blip. As you say everyone who ever driven a manual quickly learn to rev. match. My 75 year old mum, still zip around town in her manual no rev. match car and shifts smoothly up and down as the rest of 80% or so of European car drivers without thinking.

What I think some enthusiasts here is talking about is not rev. matching but tracking your MT car where you balance the car on the edge of grip into corners and can't afford upsetting the rear with engine braking or be clutched out for any extended time and mitigate it with heel toe action and throttle blip. This is trickier to master every time.

The auto rev. match help you with both scenarios. Is it necessary? Nope but it is nice to have the option, I'm sure even my mom would appreciate if we get it in her next car
I agree with some statement but, you never want to shift mid corner.
That can hurt you on the track, specially if you drop the clutch to fast
