Yeah, they're all the same. Who cares about a few displaced letters.

Well it's weird because reading everywhere - everybody recommended a wider stance on the bar if you have shoulder/pec/whatever flexibility issues using the low bar. So I tried it and it was worse. My elbows hurted much more and wrists much more, so I switched to an even narrower grip than usual. That worked wonders.
Don't know what's up with that. I think the traps just contracted better and there was less "arm load" or support of the bar.

Yeah I think maybe I should "depth drop" a bit forward. When I jump straight up I usually end up bending a lot at the knee and loading the quads a lot and very little hip. If I'd have just a SMALL displacement forward at the first jump then maybe I'd load more hip and jump higher, while also straining my knees less.

Haha, yeah I remember those BSS and deadlift videos. If you talk stuff too much, you might force me to use the heaviest dumbbells available in my gym, which are 50 kg.

Why do all the powerlifters use a wide (extremely wide) grip when squatting? It's beyond my understanding.

Yeah my explosiveness just exponentially lowers with weight added. For example, with an empty bar I get so high... yet with 30 kg I don't get high at all. Same with snatches. With an empty bar I do them explosive enough. Give me 30 kg and it's all shoulders, non explosive etc. It's annoying and I can't find a logical reason for that.

I finally see a small guy choosing to go with a one leg jump (albeit missing the dunk on this one). I rarely see small people choosing the one-leg jump (almost never).
