so i am assumming this hotwire as i call it (taken from hot-swapping), does not trigger any errors or DTC? it's a little different unplugging several pins vs just cutting the brown wire while the car is ON.

No errors that I can tell. It would be effectively the same if the harness simply had no pin 1 vs cutting it yourself, you simply disconnect the OEM connector with the car in ACC mode and then plug in the adapter.
