Should car still run on alternator with ground terminal off battery?
Allow me to explain. "Wrongformation" such as this is WHY and HOW "internet legends" become established, maintain, and become "believed." It's how they continue to "be."
Never, ever, anyplace, will you have ever been taught, read about, or seen published, in any sort of mechanics training manual, service manual, service bulletin, or any other legitimate automotive service material, NO place will you ever see this posted as some sort of legitimate recommended test of a system.
I would LOVE to find a way to bury this useless old wives tale. In short it is NOT a test as I mentioned earlier, and could very well damage modern electronics.
