I've been around gardening & nurserymen all my life, and I have never heard anyone say that you can grow stronger foliage by abusing the plant.   That's just weird thinking.

Perhaps a better analogy would be if an airline pilot decided to jerk & whack his controls in a frenzy, expecting that this would make the plane fly better.
