Technical Question, Please help settle an argument.

Anchoring a boat by it's stern is generally considered a bad idea for good
reason.

For normal anchoring, that may well be true. However, for the stated
purpose (practice with the spinnaker at the mooring) it is not a bad idea at
all. There will be at least 2 crew on deck for the entire exercise, so they
can take care of any unforeseen problems.
