I don't do sabre at all, but your theory covers such basic layer of fencing, that is universal for all weapons. Great stuff, very useful! What I would add, from my experience at least, is that making it work relies mostly on reaction time between noticing an opportunity, figuring what to do and doing that. That is damn difficult and takes a lot, lot of practice. For the beginners that's a tremendous mental work :)
