I have used the torch tip method all my life, and never ever had a problem.
The tip cleaning needles are not to be used as files, if you use them properly, they will not change the size of the jet by a measurable amount, unless you sit down and grind the hole of the jets on purpose. You can measure the needle with a micrometer, and insert the closest size for a jet, and only pass it once, just enough to clear the jet, and out.
