There's nothing wrong with the transmissions. They are designed that way. 
Toyota as well as most manufacterers are using triple synchros in their gear 
boxes. The car manufacterers realise that not everyone knows how to properly 
match engine speed to road speed before shifting. Hence the triple synchros. 
And since most people don't downshift over revving due to mis-shifts aren't 
a problem.
