Have you split the atom in your kitchen? Made your own fireworks? Fired a bacon rocket through your window?

if you let the bubbles settle out (it'll take ages if they are tiny) then it should be fine. Unless the wine was very, very slightly fizzy, and then you're affecting the carbonic acid in solution/CO2 in bubbles balance, which will change the flavour.
With your wine bottle trick - have you tried the "water hammer" trick on an open bottle? Oh, my, that's a fuckton of fun. Especially explaining how it works afterwards.

...just in case people try it at home.

...I was worried the bubbles would oxidise the wine - the massive surface area of so many tiny bubbles gives plenty of diffusion surface.
Probably more a problem with reds though...

But you might have point. Although it's good for reds, you might have come up with a high speed alternative to decanting...
