Watch urban grower trim a bud:

Okay, now I've been growing for many years, but have never helped anyone else trim. In fact, until the last year I've never even met another grower.
In any event, I've always trimmed each leaf off at the stem, spreading and digging into the bud if need be. Only the small single blade leaves on the top of the bud get snipped. A few of my trimmers have tried to get away with trimming like the guy in this video but I've always showed them the "right way" to do it.
Am I an anal retentive prick? Maybe this is why trimming takes so long compared to what I've read on this site. If I did it like him I probably wouldn't even need help. I'm only harvesting 1.5-2lbs at a time.
To me, it just looks so much better completely nude of leaves.
