So in your expert opinion, this IS NOT the correct tune up? I just want to make sure I am not using my wonderful Big Shot plate wrong adding all that fuel.

without fuel to match it stoichiometric ratio.. they basically just put any flame/fire out in that motor...basically same as spraying it with a co2 fire extinguisher..

Exactly the opposite. They ADDED an oxidizer, not removed it. I did the exact same thing to a lawnmower that I repaired for a guy. He didn't want to pay me, so he left with a lawnmower that didn't work.

We have done that on the dyno with some pretty good results. Spools the turbo faster and clears up the smoke..............in a diesel lol.

This is one reason IF I ever have the need for some spray I will be giving Monte a call. I can't afford to do a bone-head move.

Why am I not surprised that this happened near where I live?

"without fuel to match it stoichiometric ratio"
Stoichiometric is irrelevant to tuning an engine for power except as a point of departure: find it, and go lower. 14.7:1 etc. is definitely not what you want to make with nitrous. The real question isn't rich or not, but how rich.
