Affirmative. Used a golf putter to hold the pedal down.
I followed the DIY to the letter, but it feels wonky now.
Just to clarify, I gravity bled, and did not use a power bleeder.
And, JFP, I used your suggested positioning to reach the bleeder. I actually got my Popeye forearm in there with no problem! Helps that I'm a southpaw.
