Checking for loose spark plug by putting finger at top of coil?

This is what I wrote at another forum 9 years go
"""""""""""When I changed spark plug wires today at my another car I spot far more vibrations when I set my finger at top of one spark plug boot then rest (certainly engine must work). It appear that spark plug was very loose. It seem to me that is enough to set finger at top of boot to check for spark plugs looseness. Our trucks have problem with it and this seem to be quick check. Any opinion?"""""""
So any opinion? It look to me like a really convenient way to check about it.
This guy is inline about it. He deal with wire not cop but would be possible to feel vibrations from loose spark plug at CoP with finger.
