But that's really up to who is the one programming, whether they leave un-used residue or not. Tell me exactly, exactly, exactly why I should not use stock for function-accessibility if you are going to reply.

For example, you could also make every variable global, or even worse, bad indentation. It won't break anything, but it is seen as bad programming. The same goes for the (ab)use of stock in these cases. The code works, but it is technically incorrect. And when writing a tutorial I expect the writer to set a good example.
