It is possible. Especially when they sell you a second hand MY00 S2000 with a worn clutch and taking it in for a testdrive in the rain didn't provide the oppertunity to really test the clutch (and me not doing a clutch test with the parking brake).
Anyway...

No offence, IMO your 1st to 2nd gear shift glazed your clutch due to bad left feet / right feet coordination but I think you allready know that 
Live and learn
...getting a new clutch from the dealer is almost as likely as getting new tires from them.
Anyway...

Doesn't sound like you did anything wrong though if what you're saying is true though.

That's happened to me too but I've only let it happen for one gear cause as soon as I hear the difference, I always let off the gas. I've noticed it happening a few times, so now I concentrate to make sure that my left foot is all the way up before hitting the gas again between shifts. I was giving gas too early, which made the clutch slip. Now I haven't really had a problem.
That stupid a$$ CDV really doesn't help at all though. If that is removed, I'm sure we wouldn't run into this issue anymore.

CDV is only going to make the situation worse.

Removing the CDV out of the clutch slave cylinder will engage the clutch as fast as you let go of the clutch pedal, and if you "dump" the cluch pedal, as fast as the pressure plate/clutch fluid flow back allows (and that is pretty fast).
A faster engaging clutch has less chance of slipping due to a little messed-up coordination between left foot & right foot during fast shifts.
A faster engaging clutch is also harder on the entire drive train - everything in between the flywheel and tires.
That is why the CDV was installed, to protect the drivetrain (with the diff and CV's as main target IMO).
so what your saying is by removing it its not going to help at all??

as soon as i get my new clutch, the CDV is coming out. my car is bone stock. i dont launch my car either. i just drive it agressively like many other s2k owners. so it should be just fine without it.

That is almost the same as what I posted
Almost... because.. in your words... basic purpose is to intentionally slip the clutch under heavy load during shifting needs to be added IMO.
If a clutch is going to slip under heavy load by itself.. there is a problem.
