I've tried them both. I don't need help, so I'm not asking. But, if I did, I'd not ask you anyway because you aren't consistent
Just kidding with you, friend. I've read the books, and although picture shows the thumb in the position you said is "right". There's no emphasis on the positioning of the thumb on the shank. There is the phrasing that "It should be so held that it can be easily rolled in the hand, making the process of stropping much easier and more graceful." There is no mention of wrist immobility or thumb positioning.
SO, let's not be so quick to dismiss others, please.
