Thanks for the clarification; I understood your second explanation much better.
Clearly, your experience supports what you say, but I wonder at the other top professionals with experience similar to yours, who seem to have very little strength but lots of control. If strength improves control, then fine, but my experience in other activities only confirms this notion when attempting something that requires strength. I just can't figure out which muscle is being exercised. After all, the lungs are not muscles!
I'll put this in my thick folder of things that I hope to understand better in the future.
