I do it occasionally.
I tend to blip the throttle a touch when using the clutch as well to help speed up the gears when engaging them. It is an old habit that I do on cars as well. Ever driven an old truck without synchros in the trans?
Unfortunately, I don't know enough about the Triumph trans to say what can be damaged - if anything.
On a trans with synchronizers, it can cause synchro wear on the edges if you are not smooth.
On a dog box or cartridge design, it shouldn't be an issue.
