Well if every heavy bat came with a dedicated batting coach, you may have a valid point... but, alas, the only thing I see come along with heavy bats are slower bat speeds, and dribblers back to the pitcher. If a lighter bat, produces a dribbler that gets past the pitcher for a base hit... the kid has more fun, learns to love the game, and possibly will play the game long enough to learn proper (and apparently physics defying ) swing mechanics you speak of.
I guess it's OK to celebrate dribblers, but if you teach a kid good swing mechanics from Day 1, they can handle a heavier bat and hit the ball hard and far! That's REAL fun and the best way to keep them coming back for more!
