Question Exedy Clutch + ACT Flywheel Question

Hi, I currently have the Exedy clutch + ACT streetlite flywheel. I've been driving with it for almost 10000miles now everything seems good. But I have notice one thing. My car is hard to stall lol. For instance, when I am in first gear and I let go of the clutch and throttle the car just moves by itself at 20km/h constant speed. Isn't for MT cars if you don't step on the throttle in any gear the car will slowly slow down and eventually stall right? Like it wouldn't just go forward at a constant speed.

For the people with this setup, does this happen to you guys as well? Cuz this feels weird.

well if ur on a flat surface and slowly let go of the clutch the car will move forward and wont die. but if u quickly let go of the clutch the rpms will drop too quickly and cause a stall. and no if ur in gear and jus let the car coast it actually wont die as long as the car moving steadily on a flat surface or downward surface and the rpm is steady.

Mine does not stall with zero throttle(in 1 st and 2nd gears for sure). G has a lot of low end grunt to keep it going just at idle speed. I even crawled up the small hill in traffic with foot off the gas pedal.
Lighter flywheel might have something to do it-instead of wasting engine power on rotating heavy stock flywheel it all goes to move the car.
(I have ACT streetlite)

What RPM does it run in that scenario? It should keep the car rolling at around idling rev, ie: 850.

In first, if you feather the clutch slowly it should catch and you will not stall. ( I used to do this all the time in freeway traffic) I dont think this is possible in second though.
