This can't be good advice to anyone.
If it was touted as the ultimate way to get a cog on and off I have no issue with it.
I believe the people that originally came up with it were saying you don't need a lockring on a track. Perhaps we should come up with a new name for using the method while still using a lockring on the street? Because it does get your cog a LOT tighter than a chainwhip. Which probably would have prevented the OP's problem in the first place...
