If you are in traffic and need to take the power off the drive train to stop.... and can't.... what kind of consequences might that entail?

You need to treat this more seriously than you are.

The noise with clutch out, car neutral, is almost certainly throwout bearing... but can be that in addition to the things mentioned already in thread....

By continuing to drive it you are also increasing the chance that the cost of repairs will skyrocket due to collateral damage...... extraneous of any accident it might cause....
much like letting the rails and guides on the chain go long enough to lock up the chain and it cause the pistons to contact and bend the valves..... that sort of ' chain' reaction...
