Wrong. Go take a look at how a GFCI is actually designed. As I stated, besides comparing the current flowing in the hot and neutral through any loads, they also generate a small 120hz test voltage on both the hot and neutral. Any path back to that GFCI other than the hot and neutral connected to it will result in it tripping. That path could be the neutral of that circuit connected to ground OR that neutral connected to another neutral. In either case, the GFCI will trip as soon as power is turned on, without any load.
So, if you want to find out if you have any shared or crossed neutrals, all you have to do is replace breakers one at a time with a GFCI and turn the power on. If there are any crossed or shared, the GFCI will trip. It's all about parallel circuits.
You really should stop giving advice on subjects beyond your pay grade.
