Just so. You need to put your foot back on the go pedal before defeating cruise. With a bit of practice it can be done fairly seamlessly and it becomes habit. If you really do want to slow quickly then hitting the brakes will do it and the brake lights will come on with any rapid slowing, brake pedal or not....Its pretty easy to get used to it driving around town, once you get the stopping distance under control. What's hard to remember is coming off of cruise control on the highway. If you normally tap the brake to disable cruise control, that habit will lead to some non-smooth driving as the heavy regen kicks in at freeway speeds. I have to remember to put my foot on the gas pedal and press it down, THEN turn off cruise with the button.
Overall from what I have seen on the S forums, you either love one-pedal driving right away, or you manage to get used to one-pedal driving, but never fully enjoy it.
For those of us with manual transmission experience, it isn't any more difficult that learning to downshift but for those used to automatics it will be a new skill.
