I don’t think the swings are on my old laptops. I think they were on my old PC.

Were they “bad” like this ?
That’s a good swing compared to the swings on that program.
That looks like he's fading a 2 iron to a back right pin placement.

You see the similarities (they are exaggerated in the on deck swing)?
I use exaggeration in lessons. Back when I was a serious golfer I would video my swing all the time. Often a swing change that felt significant couldn't be seen in video. From this I learned to exaggerate the action.
Agreed. There is nothing wrong with some exaggeration, especially in drills. But it's important to understand that the action you are exaggerating is just that, an exaggeration.
Most of the time yes, but not always. Sometimes you have to tell them to exaggerate it to get them to where you want them to be. What feels like a big change to the player often doesn't go far enough.
