Interestingly Dan John also does this with a lot of his programming. He will use disadvantaged leverage positions to increase difficulty with lighter weights.One of his reasons for this seems to be for longevity / feeling beat up from the big 3 when you're dealing with higher weights. I like my workouts leaving me feeling better so a lot of his messaging was appealing to me.
Eg instead of doing a strict military press, he will have people do a kneeling press because it requires more stability and less weight.
