Do you have that Boeing reference?
With 10 years/5000+ hours on the 747 (both -400 and Classic), I have never been in a situation where bringing the airplane to a full stop helped to start a turn. Similarly, cranking the tiller full over while stopped is q very good way to start the nosegear skidding right off the bat, ESPECIALLY on a slippery runway! Tapping the brake is of greatest use when lightweight and/or aft CG.
Previous "Boeing" guidance that I heard in the past (for which I have also never seen a reference) that differential power should NOT be used has also proven to be misguided.
