Yup.

Find something else to worry about.

If everyone has the same problem, it's normal
It happens to mine, too. Sometimes, when I hard-brake to stop, engine seems to stall, but it's negligible.

Doesn't that only happen on automatics, or is it always like that on 6 speed manuals as well?

My car does the exact same thing. I mentioned it on a service visit, they upgraded the software to verson 20.02 I think, and it still does it. The software update was also for some others problems - they were fixed so I didn't worry much about the wandering rpm problems.

Well, I guess mine's not normal either, but I sure as heck am not worrying about it.
