Well I'm assuming when we say wide-grip we mean much more than shoulder width and we are not just saying it to mean "not close-grip. But basically yes, it puts your shoulders in a very vulnerable position because they are not able to stabilize as well.

Now I know powerlifter do this a lot. But all they care about is lifting as much as possible and you do NOT want to see an x-ray of some of these guys shoulder capsules! In general you want a "neutral" grip around shoulder width and keep you elbows tucked in.

If you act sanctimonious I will just list out your logical fallacies until you get pissed off and spew blasphemous remarks.
