There's also the chance of damaging the terminations either at the bridge end with pressure down on the string, or at the capo/agraffe end by raising the string (the same argument I have with string hooks close to the termination).

Yes I have used it. No I do not think it really works at all. In fact
I think this tool is more likely to exasperate a problem. You may get
the feeling of some slight improvement for very short term on some
notes, but IME the term is so short that by the time you finish a tuning
if you go back and check the same string its just as wavery as it was to
begin with.

does it
really work?
