People driving an EV learn, in a matter of minutes, to coast by just applying the right amount of pressure on the "gas" pedal.

They learn to sort of coast. The car feels like it's coasting. Sure.

Next time you do this keep an eye on the actual power readout. See if it's actually zero or if it's reporting ~3kW of braking or accelerating.
