Yes the bevel has to be on the hone at all times, that means the torque of all forces acting on the razor is zero. That means that the the downward force at the heel is larger than the force at the...

There is more pressure down towards the heel than the toe. The blade is not flexing the way you are thinking, the spine is rigid. You can get flex on the edge side of the blade if you apply too much...

Not quite, the reason to do so is to ensure each part of the blade get good contact with the hone. The time on the hone the heel spends compared to the toe is different, but so is the force applied....

The contact is never perfect. With time the strop may cup a little, not all razors are perfect straight, so the contact is never perfect. Straight stroke will work ideally with perfect everything,...

Exactly now if only some people listen ...

You do not strop with rolling x, just x-stroke and that is it.
Now if you are honing then that is another story.

May be you missed my post, but I gave you the answer.
The contact the blade makes with the strop is full when doing x-stroke. When stropping, naturally, the hand does x-stroke.

Yay...vectors!
It is much simple than that, the edge gets full contact with the strop this way, proven over and over again.
of course you can do straight strokes no one says it is wrong etc, but...
