1. Light steady pressure is correct with or without an engine brake.
2. If you have enough brakes to stop you have enough to get into the right gear and continue on, stopping exacerbates the issue and gets the brake FAR HOTTER than slowing and selecting the correct gear.
3. If anyone is teaching that you should never downshift when going downhill they should be charged with attempted murder. -

What is "loosing" brakes?
-
Driver told mechanic, "I lost my brakes". Then driver said, "Well I didn't really, you know, lose my brakes. I still know where they are. It's just that every time I apply them, nothing happens".
