My take, for what it's worth: I don't think Mr Sellers said he invented the technique, but I do think it was implied, maybe by omission.......
Me, I like different techniques by different people. Andy Rae, Tage Frid, Chris Gochnour, Mike Pekovich, Paul Sellers, etc. I do not blindly follow each and every thing they do or say. Make up my own mind, I do. Each one has something I like and don't like, and that's OK. But the 'his way or the highway' crap is silly. That pretty much negates any innovation, doesn't it, say, for something like diamond stones? Did his mentors have diamond stones? Why did he switch to them? Because they're better?
A really good teacher doesn't limit you by saying that this is the only way to accomplish something; they show you a method and then tell you that this is one way to do it, maybe you can find a better way. I don't see that in Mr. Sellers' 'teaching', and that's a shame.
BTW, I've 'coined' a lot of terms in my life as well, most of which are not appropriate for this forum!
