Hmmm,
Let's see . . . where in any GD discussion does it say we do not work in the slot.
My nose is on the side edge of the plate every time . . .
Getting hit must be anecdotal:
Since I started the Davis Stance in 1999 I have been hit ONCE -- that's ONCE -- I got hit a bunch more than that working the heel-to-toe.
PLUS by working further back, in theroy, it would give the ball LONGER to rise before getting to the umpire therefore it would more often miss the umpire.
Sorry, I buy into very little of what you posted.
