Nail on the head..

I find false neutrals sometimes but have found its just me either on a quick or lazy shift. Moved shifter one notch on the spline and gone.

I always hit false neutrals when my shifter is a bit loose on the splines. Two times now shifter went bad in 6 months.

Have now locktited in when the newest shifter also started to have some play. Now it is completely gone and everything is fine now!

I have say to that now after 40 hours or so, I am used to the nuances of my gearbox and don't find false neutrals.

I am finding it shifts a lot better now also. Which either down to me learning the bike or its bedding in or both.

I use Delo 400, have since the first oil change. The clutch action is superb, best I've experienced.
