That its possible to turn the truss rod WITH the strings on.
I'd think you'd always have to take the strings of, or at least loosen them to get your gigantic man hands inside the sound hole

Most hex wrenches are L-shaped, allowing the shorter end to be inserted into the sound hole between two strings and into the truss rod nut. As already mentioned you only turn it about 1/4 turn at a time. You then recheck the relief and reset your hex wrench for another adjustment if needed.
