????? Personally, I find self-cleaning lubes like Rock'N'Roll to be much faster and easier. For one thing, you don't have to clean the chain first. I basically do exactly what your DH does, except that I skip the first part described. And I don't apply the lube link by link. I just apply a continuous flow of lube along the chain as I freewheel, then freewheel for another 20 or so cranks, let it sit at least a few hours or overnight, then wrap a rag around the chain and rotate the cranks until there's no gunk or excess lube on the links.

I'm inherently lazy. Trust me, if this weren't an easy process, I'd be ridin' with a gunky, squeaky chain
