you are absolutely right on your third paragragh.
i don't think he quite understands that the LDC is a whole different ball game (like the MBL to high school baseball) even though the same principles apply.

1)I'm speaking on the lines of point and shoot when explaining.... The stiffer the shaft the more the ball will go exactly where its aimed because is doesn't flex hardly any at all (thus the lack of kick/speed thru impact)... So as to where the golfer gains more control or not will be determined on how well his mechanics are. But in most cases if you lower the torque and stiffen the tip you will see less generated side spin by the shaft and thus more control over all "unless the golfer has adapted to a softer flex".
2)This can infact be done and help generate distance (with the possible loss of control) but if you have a shaft that fits your swing perfect and performs perfect #'s on the Launch Monitor then going to a softer shaft may increase LA and spin and thus causing balooning.
