Glad some one liked it and got some usefulness out of my gifs.

It's a version of this. To Laser the ball with the barrel.

Totally did. And this is another good one. My coaching buddy and I have been thinking about trying that one too. We have tried it out ourselves but haven’t felt comfortable enough with it to try it out on hitters (our daughters) during the season. I see Hitting Rebellion does a couple version of that one too.

Not here.
Would it be fair to say...different cue. That's why I post the gifs I do. I'm not saying I agree or disagree with all them but, I've found that may be different drills or cues click with some one. It may help someone see it or figure it out differently. Throwing a lot out and see what sticks.

It was my opinion that this was to support the notion of 'one-legged'.

Personally I don't teach this action so much as 'one-legged' ... but instead in terms of developing initial bat speed by the usage of the rear-side of the torso ... the development of a corner ... segment running from the rear shoulder/scap to rear hip.

If 'one-legged' is about the development of this action, then I agree with it.

Why might this be considered 'one-legged'? Simply because if you are premature to shift your weight forward too early then the radius will be too long to perform this action.
