That’s not a trick, that’s just good driving. Turning the wheel while stationary is called dry steering and is not good for the power steering system, the tires, or even the road surface.

That's like saying under-cooked vegetables will wear out your cutlery faster than cooked vegetables. It's probably technically true but in practice it doesn't matter.
I learned this lesson the hard way, when they just re-paved our street I took my dad's truck out and dry steered on the fresh asphalt. It carved a rut in the road. It's pretty bad for your tires too.
