well, both
As far as I've seen cranks that are even severly under torqued won't just slide off.
And given as how I had assembled the bike myself and never used my 16mm socket (I know for a fact because I hadn't removed the bit from the packaging of my socket set), I was working on the bike and took the crank off and put it back on less than a week ago and I never used my socket I just used my park wrench.

Its just odd enough I don't expect anyone to believe me, I just had to say somthing.
