Agreed especially since he mentioned soldeing the wires. The code
should be violated only by those who know how |.

Soldering isn't a Code violation.

Soldering stranded cable CAN be.

Cite, please.
In aircraft use soldered connections are verbotten because solder
wicks back the cable and the cable becomes brittle - causing vibration
to break the wire. Same in industrial control panels. Not sure of NEC
application in residential wiring - but bad practice, regardless.
