I get the part about possibly damaging adjacent shingles if pulling off the old ridge caps, but I’m not understanding why using longer nails to go over the old caps makes the new ones more susceptible to wind damage...

Longer nails are needed to go through the old shingles, but I see multiple layers of shingles on roofs and in my experience, they are more likely to sustain wind damage. I think it is easier for wind to get under the multiple layers of shingles, I assume this would be the same for ridge shingles
