I mean, this technique is so well-established that there is a thriving market of balance bikes which are purpose-made for it. What is with tech people and the need to talk about every new thing they learn about like it's an original discovery?
(unfortunately this method only really works on paved surfaces, so the scary way was probably the best option available for me growing up in the sticks.)

I literally admit that this is something that must have been obvious that I never knew before, lighten up, it's my personal blog.
Some of us learn things for the new time, and then tell our friends, and they all heard about it for the first time too, so decide to share it with others. This will inevitably reach some portion of people who have never heard of it before, as well as people like you who know about it already. Information is not uniformly distributed and some of us like to get excited about new things we just found out.
I'm sorry for being ignorant about something you already knew. I'm just one of today's lucky 10,000, and evidently there are many others on this very board. Not everybody knows everything already. https://xkcd.com/1053/
