As you wish, but this was common practice all the years I did this work.
Every training captain I knew, and I was one, taught the same technique.
I know of no other way to determine rate or volume of ice accretion.
VFR, on the other hand, we generally taught to keep one's hand on, or close to, the collective.
Hence my explanation to the young lad as to why one might, or might not, keep one's hand on the collective.
Not sure what the "Two Dogs" reference means.
