For example Jim is recommending basically daisy chaining bonds from chassis to chassis

"pin1" mitigation, it's poor and un-recommended technique for lightning 
potential dissipation.  The recommended and industry standard technique for lightning 
potential dissipation is to use a low impedance connection of each chassis directly to 
the central point ground system.

Those recommendations ignore the reality of unbalanced connections from chassis to chassis for audio, control, data, even RF. They are looking at the elephant through a pin hole in the tent, and see only a part of the animal.
