I know how to pull the wheel on a Brompton;it's the fact that I had to do it that cooled me on the whole Brompton fever.
First,are you saying you would
prefer to go through a process rather than a much simpler procedure? Really? Second,why doesn't Brompton make it simpler? There simply is no good reason for them not to have a caliper that cannot be opened tool-free,and there's no good reason the tensioner can't remain on the bike. That's just poor execution. And just because something has been done a certain way for a long time doesn't mean it's the best way.

Between my personal fleet and my bike clinic,I've wrenched over 1000 bicycles. I do most of my own work on my Harley(and previous rides),and I spent my first 4 yrs in the USAF as a aircraft tech on the flightline,so I think I'm a pretty good mechanic.
As for schooling,at least I take the time to type proper English. Seriously,in the 31k+ postings you've made,have any of them
ever been totally legible? It really is a pain sometimes to decipher your hieroglyphics.
