I think I see what you are saying.

If the x in stropping exactly replicates the x in honing thus the action of stropping reinforces the edge built by honing. That way your stropping by working in exactly the same direction might be, rather than just smoothing out the edge, actually restoring the shape imparted to it by the stone so by stropping correctly you can greatly extend the time between trips to the hone.

Seems simple to me

Of course I refined my stropping technique by watching your youtube video about a hundred times, that might have something to do with why I get the sense that my razors, like yours, see the hones much more seldom than is average. Though I don't think I have reached your level just yet.
