Nonsense. that's like saying the first base coach has the best view of the outside corner...same angle.

U1 is looking straight at the front of the leg and can see better than anyone other than BU coach at third whether or not a LHP is stepping more to one side or the other. Simple geometry.

The folks at CCA, God bless them, are not perfect.
