I am always pleased to be of assistance but it is not your flying technique that I am seeking to improve!
You would certainly make a fascinating addition to a CRM course, the moment that someone suggests a way of looking at things you instantly think that they are "having a go" at you personally, (rather than the training system and general stick in the mud attitude of the UK regulatory authority that has (mis?)programed your brain).
Last night out of pure interest I did an NDB approach using the company SOP. the ADF was tuned and selected but with two FMC's three ADIRU's two GPS's five DME's and three VOR's doing all the thinking just how much input did the ADF have into the management of the approach?.
The answer of course it that the ADF had absolutely no input what so ever in the positioning of the aircraft either vertically of laterally and to all intents and purposes the aircraft was on an RNAV approach with the ADF selected to stay legal.
Fortunately I don't have to fly under UK CAA regulation as last nights fully managed approach (I am told) is still not approved by them despite the aircraft being on the UK register for twenty years, Flying with company's that are regulated by authority's that don't have the head in the sand attitude of the CAA had been a real eye opener into the potentials for safety improvement.
The only criticism that I would level at you (and only on the basis of two or three posts on this forum) is that you don't seem to have an open mind to other ways of looking at things, but perhaps you are a victim of he CAA controlled training, I know that until I got out into the big wide world I to had an attitude that was narrowed by my UK training.
