You're wrong. Don't advise people to do stupid shit. I never said don't work on it, but for fucks sake turn the panel off.

Are you seriously advocating for untrained people to work one handed in a hot panel?

Please don't offer shit advice to people on DIY who don't know any better. Your advice flies in the face of all recognized safe work practices discussed in NFPA 70E.

Electrician here:

Ya dun goofed. Call a sparky. Stay out of your panel. The more you continue to touch it, the more expensive it will be to fix it.

Friendly reminder to the DIYers, there's a reason that you need a license to be an electrician or a plumber.
