I’m far from a pro, but when I first tried this it was a revelation.
The other thing I’ve found is using the same bit of spare inner to ‘floss’ the end of the plastic liner after cutting works much better than poking it with a bradawl/hex key, as the lining becomes smoother and more fluted without getting creased into the inner and concertina-ing.

I always insert a length of spare inner cable into housing before cutting, helps prevent the lot from deforming too much.
Never had a problem with compressionless with the Park Tool using this method.
