Look at it this way.
Claim and cancel means to claim your money back because you didn't get what you paid for. Now if I gave you a gift, I can't claim it back..it's a gift. Gifting is like a donation..you can't claim a donation back and say "oh, I didn't get my item." When you send a gift you send it without expecting something back. See where I'm going with this?
Please, Gifting isn't 100% safe. If you're going to teach someone how to protect their sale, at least inform them accurately.
Gifting is a personal payment, which means you can't claim normally. You also aren't charged the normal fees. However, unauthorized claims still apply. Be careful with any kind of sale via Paypal because stolen Paypals are extremely common.
If someone gifts you money or claims/cancels, they can still ask Paypal to manually enter in a dispute.
