I wouldn't. You're quite right.

But, if I found myself in a pinch, such as a late Sunday evening, drained the oil, thought I had a spare only to find I didn't, or couldn't find it, then reversing the washer will do the job. This actually happened a couple times with another exotic I owned and couldn't get replacements locally, only 1 parts supplier in the US. It works, but only one time, then you must replace it.
