Yes, those variations of the Nadal swing can produce huge changes in angle. I sometimes hit with the seniors here in San Bernardino and they cannot believe the curl on the ball. Some of them ask just to rally to get used to the spin.

Can generate some nasty spin for sure and is more flowing. I love to try new styles so that I can figure them out and have a better understanding for my students. I can find little adjustments that work for me that may work for them and they love to see you show it to them.

Great! I think it affords more accuracy for the spin drive. Is that what you're finding?

actually been working on a more straight arm forehand like that

That's why you just do the lower half. :)

It is such a long stroke to save you from a doubles jam. ;-)

Believe it or not, memorizing this sequence has saved me alot of tight jams in doubles.
