I thought he was discussing the shorting of the outputs of an altimeter for shipping a misbehaving altimeter back to the manufacturer.
Instead of shorting the output and accidently destroying the FET, I was suggesting using a 10 ohm resistor which would effectively short the outputs but not damage the FET if accidently fired, nor would it excessively heat up.

What I meant was to make a short to bypass the current-limiting circuitry in the battery.
I hadn't yet seen the tutorial from the Altus Metrum guys which shows it as completely removing the limiting circuitry, so I was conjecturing as to how to perform the operation.
