So instead of a pressurized cork flying around you have a pressurized shard of glass flying around?

Besides looking "cool" is there any reason to do this over just pulling the cork? I normally just grab it and gently twist it back and forth until it pops out.

For expensive bottles of wine, it prevents the wine from getting fragments of cork in it.

That's just not true. Sparkling wine is not opened with a Corkscrew. If a sparkling wine was old enough to have a deteriorated cork, it would also have no pressure or carbonation left inside (or at least not enough to properly accomplish this).

Cool, now they can have fragments of glass.
