Well after 6 pages that I quickly skimmed, I saw lots of discussion about arm muscles. It's the fingers that do the work. Well I guess the muscles that control the fingers are in the forearm..
My playing table tennis proofed that the fingers deliver the power. Playing baseball I learned that the fastball and change up and curve or slider All had the same body and arm movements. The fingers could change the pitch. A pitcher had to be able to disguise the pitch. With the same visible delivery, the subtle input of the fingers was much harder for a hitter to detect.
Piano players tickle the ivory. The subtle input from wrist and fingers deserves attention.
Most shots get a gentle caressing the break shot gets a bitch slap. .

Good video Dave. I personally think in slick conditions it is way easier to miss one rail kicks than 3 rail ones(for me at least). I think Josh just felt he read table better on 3 railer than 1.. and that 3 rail shot with speed had served me well many many times. because too full hit gives safety 80% of times and that happens a lot with slick tables.
