Bullshit.
Flight or fight is the instinct you're referring to, which is quite different from 'defend oneself'. And neither have a tendency of happening, even in full grown adults (bystander effect, shock, et al).
Furthermore, I see little to explain why 'physical punishments don't work'. What I have seen has pointed out that physical punishments only work in specific circumstances, which removes the legs from 'physical punishment needn't be employed'.
Now, on the topic of outsourcing your disciplinary measures to someone else (not a parent) -- fuck that shit. Your broodlings, your job to discipline them.
