I'm sure there are people out there smarter than me, but my opinion is as
follows:
It makes no difference how one loosens the head bolts. I am sure that many
heads have proven to be warped after the heads bolts are loosened, and the
head is removed. But, I believe the condition is the result of stresses
induced in the head by improper cooling or other factors, and that it makes
no differences how the "tension" is released. When the head and block are
cool, there is no force I am aware of which could result in warpage, unless
the head is already under differential stress "contained" by the clamping
force of the head bolts.

It might not make any difference but it can't hurt either.
