Would you ladies clarify why 1) someone would want to stand while coasting and 2) why one would want to dismount while clipped in to one pedal?

Just wondering...like Darcy, my butt is permanently glued to the seat...and when I dismount, having my feet firmly planted on the ground is no guarantee of an athletic-looking dismount...heck, taking one hand off the handle bars to signal a turn is risky enough for me!!
