Yes you are correct on all parts of that statement and thank you for bothering to ask. Most players are unaware of the real game rules, they play under falsely imposed rules to their own detriment. Since I have asked this same question several different ways and have received similar answers it is my opinion that it is acceptable. I have discussed this with the guild I run and as I tell them all I like to think of it using this hypothetical. If you have something that can make your life easier, hypothetically lets say a way to speak to someone instead of type to them you would be tempted to use it to speed things up since typing is tedious and time consuming and speaking is much easier for most people.
This method of training is no different it just speeds up the process and takes away the tediousness.
As for the hiding in walls, that is to avoid interfering with the game play of others since the raiders and gypsys can go through the wall too(so can stumps on Outcast and undead pirata on Cutthroat!, wall glitching is however frowned upon and I do apologies for that. The last time I stood in the open bad things happened to me) And to clarify I was not invincible/invulnerable, I took normal damage just like everyone else except I was standing out of the way of traffic.
If only everyone was so thoughtful of others gameplay.
