lol yeah when it comes to this kind of stuff the internet confuses as much as it educates. Probably more.
The leaflet packed with each of my ESC's (which do have SimonK) gives specific instructions on how to calibrate them (same steps as in every vid I found on it), I had no idea there were various camps on whether that was right or not. I've never seen a suggestion to do it with DJI's esc's so I just surmised that they were good to go out of the box...which would support some of what you found as well.
Yeah I would suggest that (and should have), it's a quick process if you can get it wired up easily. Alishanmo (who also uses SimonK) made a wiring harness to calibrate multiple ESC's at once...I haven't tried it, but he claims he uses that with all the builds he does: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UUaAH3SS2Vo
(He also has one of the vids I saw originally showing throttle calibration with SimonK ESC's)
