We are talking different machines here. Who uses tool offsets on non repeatable tool holder, like ER20 on a Chinese spindle????? Me not.

I do all the while and also teach it other wise if the tool is set to zero it drags it across the top of the work between moves.

It's very simple to follow a set of standard directions when cutting to protect the work, cutter and operator.

CNC isn't new, what is new is everyone thinking their way is better when it isn't.
