Hmmm well I'm definitely a better instructor now I've retired - it is so easy to instruct well from one's armchair! (although I do still do real instructing in gliders).
My sort of roundabout point is that when fully immersed in the day job, it is easy to lose sight of the fundamentals, and that is why this thread has been good - apart from the Crab bashing which is always fun, it may have given some other instructors pause for thought to consider whether they are following best practice. If so, it was worth the collateral damage to poor Crab and H500's egos!
