Any Honda-specific reason to not use neutral instead? That's my go-to move. I think the extra wear on the pawl mechanism is incentive enough to avoid shifting to park unnecessarily much less the extra movements required to disengage the park-brake interlock, the shifter button, and shift through 3 ranges as compared to just going from D4 to N and back.
