Obviously the OP is just trying to mock those who he imagines are frummer than him. Nonetheless a legitimate topic has been raised. The halacha that I’ve heard is that one cannot ask someone to do something that he/she holds is assur for him/her to do at that time. Benefiting from that action according to the Biur Halacha in Hilchos Shabbos who is discussing where a bona fide melacha was done is only mutar when the melacha did not transform the item into a usable condition, such as Hotza’ah.
