Trevor,
This is correct. Everybody goes to great extremes to change plugs and it is a lot of work. I did it on a lift in under one hour without removing anything. There is no need to remove bumpers and intercoolers, as I have also done in the past. With a lift, it's a quick, simple job. No need to remove anything. Huge difference!

I'm really surprised you can access everything with a lift without taking the heat shields and intercoolers out of the way. I even had a hard time making sure the coil packs snapped back into the socket and I even have small hands!
Not having to remove all the extraneous real estate would be nice- can you do it with just jack stands and a creeper?

I have never tried it with a creeper, but I would say if you can get under the car, it would be the same as on a lift, just a little uncomfortable.
We did plugs and coils this way. I have done it the other way several times and this is a lot easier.
