That’s okay Bernd. Matt had a lot of caveats in his question, so,e of which were covered in your response.
I didn’t want to confuse the main question with lots of “it depends” answers.

Not for physics but an interesting observation for teaching.
Agreed.

After the stop, they propagate towards the loop but don’t go around it.

He recognises it's not a perfect question but wants to know if the rod tip movement is the main thing he should concentrate on.Few wrote:To avoid distractions I'm assuming there is no hauling, and the line starts out straight, without slack, in an idealized back cast

It’s all about control with either leg. If you had to put your line around an obstacle on the way to a target, competition or fishing, you will need to be in control of the rod leg after loop formation. If the target and obstacle is nearby, you need to have that control very quickly.

Agreed. But in those rare cases where it makes it better I let it go
