No one is attacking you. It's an operating mode that is clearly stated in the owner's manual.
I often do dumb shit like clutch in and kill the engine (not all the way! Don't lock the column!) just to see what the brakes and steering feel like when shit goes sideways.
Find an empty street and try it. Then practice bump-starting the engine.
