With a stable and safe overclock the lifespan is not shortened nor is it lengthened.
The tutorial is mostly for advanced style of overclocking and the BIOS option is recommended over it for average users who want to overclock. Sometimes the hardware can't keep up with the latest demands in software, especially in gaming, but benefits can be reaped in all aspects of the computer experience.
One example is being able to convert videos faster.
