Oh and just to add one more thing, I sometimes do drills in this stance with my level 2-3 beginners. This is after months of having drilled isolations with the feet parallel and weight evenly distributed, so the student is already proficient at doing them that way. I use drills in this stance so the student develops the ability to do the same moves with uneven weight distribution and sees how it affects the aesthetic of the move.
But then, I make it clear that this is my goal and that this is a variation of the move, not the only way to do the move and not even really the default way (other than hip drops and maybe a few others where it's the most common way to do it, but I drill hip drops with feet parallel and even weight distribution as well... though in this position I think it's usually called "piston hips" instead).
So what I'm saying is that this isn't useless, and it's not wrong. I just find it odd that someone would use only that position, always.
