If accurate, realistic project schedules are considered a "career limiting move" then obviously the company was never a good place to advance your career anyway. As evidenced in this anecdote, this mentality doesn't produce good results for those companies. Looking back at the places I've worked, I'm having a hard time thinking of any examples of people committing singular "career limiting moves". Most tech companies I've worked for have been extremely forgiving of anyone with tech talent, to the point that some people were given countless extra chances despite longstanding patterns of misbehavior or failure to deliver. The only true incidents I can think of that fit the "career limiting move" description either resulted in getting fired, or doing unnecessarily vindictive/petty things when disagreeing with management.
