I'm confused as to why you think leaving a phone off the hook is better than 
parking the call and hanging up the phone. The phone that's off the hook can't 
receive any more calls after you've 'pulled' the one it was on the line with, 
assuming you don't walk back to that phone and subsequently hang it up, making 
the originating extension effectively useless. Call parking and hanging up the 
originating extension is actually a more elegant solution in my opinion.

You just leave the phone off the hook, walk to the handset to which
you want to transfer the call, then dial the call-steal code. This
steals (captures) any active call within the same ring group. You
don't need to park the call first.
