you are correct although I have not jumped on the hip thrust bandwagon yet.

How so?

Truth be told, I did a 3x12 hip thrust workout a few days ago and didn't feel anything WHATSOEVER as far as glute soreness/fatigue. Instead I felt it just above the glutes, where they "connect" to the spinal erectors. Kinda weird, I think I used a good enough form since the weight wasn't much (used 60 kg).

I've never done them.  They may be great but I can be somewhat resistant to change.  I get tons of glute work during a proper RDL (provided your core is strong enough to stabilize your spine and pelvis).

IMO they seem like novelty for novelty's sake.

Well they're a different type of movement (antero-posterior) and they do allow you to hyperextend the hip while under "direct" load to exactly the "origin" point if you will so...

yeah,
I've read bretts book and am quite familiar with their justification. if he had the machine for sale then maybe.  I also dont think they are needed.  but if people wanna do them no problem.  also my thighs are too big.  I would need someone to deadlit the bar on to me or set up a platform...  I guess that shows I attempted to try them...  see... too awkward
