I have never heard this before, I believe it is fairly standard and called light in the middle of a circuit. If I perform maintenance, I will shut the breaker off, right?

Negative, that is not what it's called and you haven't heard that from anybody that knows what they are talking about. I'm somewhat sure that is a code violation, an expert can correct me. Your switch or 'safety device' is always installed on the line side of equipment. Line side being the supply from your breaker.

There I googled it for you. I know you are trying to help but you are not.

What you've shown me is a 3-way switched circuit. Which you have confirmed in a previous post that you do not have.
