I think people confuse the anti-drainback valve, which is the silicone membrane that you can see inside the ring of holes around the filter and which people sometimes recommend puncturing, with the bypass valve, which is a little spring way in the back of the filter.
Unfortunately a lot of people are going to see that video and believe it and some other misinformation.
