See section 2.1.3



I read the tip on here and it gave me a Eureka sensation!


It just gives me an "unnecessary complication that is more likely to
result in a leaking joint" sensation!

(i.e. pull it out too far and you will get a mechanically weak joint,
and poorer sealing since the olive will be too close to the end of the
pipe, which will then deform too much under tightening)
