Think of all the people who are firmly convinced that you have to push the tails up the hill to initiate a turn down the hill. That's what they think they're seeing when they watch someone ski, even someone who doesn't actually ski that way.
Then there are those (often the same people) who believe you have to pick up the inside ski in order to ski parallel.
What people think they're seeing, and what is actually going on are often two different things. Also, consider the Dunning-Kruger effect.
It is said that practice makes perfect. No. Perfect practice makes perfect.
