For this particular group, true beginners, it's abysmal advice.

You need to ease body-naive folks into some of these types of workouts. Much better to start safely with more isolations and machines, then introduce these things. Walking into a gym for the first time and immediately doing deadlifts and bench is how you end up injured.
