Yes. When I shift from small chainring to large. I make one movement with the lever, but I feel 5 or 6 clicks in that 1 sweep of the lever.
When shifting to the small ring, I push the thumb shifter down all the way 1 time, and I feel all the little clicks again.
When the FD needs to be trimmed to prevent rubbing, then I shift just enough for 1 or 2 clicks as needed to stop the rubbing.
