skipping gears makes for more work from the synchros and this will wear them quicker .Unless you clash when you skip this should not be a big deal. Down shifting is harder on a synchro and skipping on a down is likewise harder on the parts. Over -reving your clutch disc is a bigger problem potential than trans damage/ wear.
