Myth or real - Stroke smoothness as a requisite for certain shots

I'm having an ongoing argument with a friend about tip/ball contact.

He refuses to acknowledge that different stroke types - as in a smooth stroke that accelerates through the ball, versus a jab that pulls away as soon as possible post result in different outcomes.

He claims the only influence on what happens is the motion at impact.

Spend some time on a 3c billiards table, people! The bigger balls and faster cloth show you things pool does not.
