I read the same about snaping the inner branch and not the exterior. The inner section of the branch is for support, the exterior (actually a layer under the true exterior) moves water and nutrients up and down. I have not tried a controlled experiment on damaging the plant, the best way to do it is to have similar sized branches on a plant and damage one and not the other. This would have to be on a plant with more branches, what if damaging the plant only has the damaged branch steal from the non-damaged branch? The result is the same amount of bud but more on the damaged branch. So it may take a bit of experimenting to get some reliable data.
