They teach this stuff.


I know I said I was done, but I can't help myself. I did a google search on that image and it led to this page:
https://cyclingsavvy.org/2021/04/bic...and-cornering/

That page is very clear that the best strategy is to use both brakes equally while adopting this posture. So if you're citing this as authority, doesn't that completely undercut the "front brake only is best" argument?
