So I decided to I replaced my spark plugs. There was a ton of carbon build up in the first cylinder, and oil on the 2nd, 3rd and 4th spark cylinders, including the spark plugs. It’s running way smoother now but there is still some jerking but it’s not as violent as before.

Rx-8 in 3years just did maintence and ned sparkplugs 0 problems.
I'm pretty sure that modern Mazda's do do this, only not in the situation you're describing. They use it for their stop start system to save having to fit a beefier starter motor and what not, simply inject an extra dose of fuel and fire the spark plug to get the engine going again.
Ours has been pretty reliable, had some issues with odd stalling once which was cured with new plugs/wires/carbon cleaning, rear shocks just went recently.
