Feathering the propeller (e.g. zero thrust) reduces Vmca.

That's fine .. the concern is with ill-considered use of flight idle. More than a few turboprop crews have either been frightened (or killed) with engine cuts and subsequent drag excursions with associated handling problems.

Not a simple matter.
