Yes it shouldn't destroy them right away, especially if they're new. But if you already have doubts about the battery's life or monitoring, discharging it fully can make things worse, because that's just how that chemical process works.
Normally the monitoring gets reset fully by charging the battery and leaving it on the charger for a few hours. Which is why people don't encounter errors too often, since most charge things overnight.
It's known that Ninty uses some damn good batteries in the DS-3DS so they tend to fine with discharging, but it's not a good general advice.
