You are making the assumption we all lather our faces before we strop. I do not. I strop before every shave, and before I put anything on my face. After stropping, I face lather and shave. No hot towels, no oil, no pre-shave stuff. Simple. I know from my experience stropping before each shave makes a difference. I can feel it on my face and heavy stubble. Early on I thought I could get a few shaves from the straight without stropping. Well, I could, but there was a noticeable difference in the quality or smoothness of the shave. Yes, stropping before every shave makes shaving my face better. I have no doubt.
