Personally I don't like it at all, I don't like the sound or feel it gives and I don't want marks on the tailpiece - and although a very few players have been doing it for decades it's really just become a fashion thing now in my opinion.
If you want a slinkier feel without damaging the tailpiece or it looking like you've done it wrong, simply raise the tailpiece a bit. Don't adjust the studs under full string tension, and use a coin not a screwdriver - that's what the slots are designed for.

I notice it has a nice proper low neck angle and bridge height too, so no reason to top-wrap it at all.
