I think this method of mixing the dirt and grass seed essentially does the same thing: give the seed plenty of cover and dirt around it to grow and grab onto.

The dirt where the grass should be was very hard and the water was running off, so we used a hoe and dug open the dirt so that it could breath and then we noticed that in our garden there was grass that was growing very thick, so we carefully dug out the "weeds" with their roots and transplanted them in the the freshly dug yard, amazingly the grass kept growing and actually spread out, so now the lawn is coming in really good.
