The Association of Cycle Traders and Bicycle Association say the proposal to raise the e-bike power limit is unnecessary, risky, and the wrong approach
I used to do the same, but I’ve had to be careful since if I don’t downshift completely, adding motor power will bend the sprocket and possibly throw the chain off entirely; I learned that from experience. As a result, I actually try to turn the power level down to zero if I know I’ve made an incomplete shift, pedal manually to complete shifting, then restore the power level.

My e-bike is rear-drive, not mid-drive, so the power doesn’t go through the chain and sprocket.
