I can do all of those things. Notably, the reverse glidetoss.
Anyways, the word trick. That I think is what is all about. Maybe you guys look at bonewalking and free pulling as supplemental gimmicks - tricks - but that's exactly why I think we differ so much. These aren't simply tricks for me, they're entrenched in my playstyle. Bonewalking, free pulling; that's how I move. That is my spacing. It's not simply a cute trick, or an occasional escape. It's an essential and basic movement that I do to get around.
I use the bstick to ledge pull, free pull, and bonewalk literally every time I have the opportunity. Every time I get off a platform - bam, a free turnip. Every time I need a burst of movement, instead of running or walking, I can free pull away and bam, free turnip. Every time I land a decent hit, or need to cover some distance quickly, bam, a free turnip.
With 100% accuracy, I have high mobility and constant movement on platforms, at midrange, and at longrange. Importantly, this is done easily through a bstick, techniques which are normally difficult and precise.
All of this... with all the glidetosses, DI, momentum cancelling, uair combos, and errthing else. All of which are situational.
So there's my major reasoning. And I think it's pretty good. I bstick because it makes the harder, more constantly in-use ATs easy without losing any of the other essential techniques - albeit slightly less easier to perform (though with a 100% accuracy rate).
