No, you're not. At least asking the question doesn't indicate idiocy.

The guy in question welded his pinion gear (attached to his driveshaft) to the ring gear of the carrier. This would keep anything from turning in the diff. He no longer has a diff, he has the world's most effective parking brake. And it's always on.
