You're correct about "say "good bye" to any type of cold start high idle, high load idle bump" but are incorrect about "poor idle when coming to a stop," unless you mean only when the car is cold.

I've had no IACV for a year now, and once the car is warmed up (say 5 minutes of driving,) coming to a stop makes no difference in my idle...
If you set your idle right with the throttle body plate then when you start coming to a stop, your idle will just drop to where you set it and stay there.
