I think the goal should be to avoid that uncomfortable switching of your stance where you just take a goofy looking step/push/switch.
If you can change your stance in any way that is smooth/looks good/is an actual trick, it should be fine.
However, if you come up with one smooth little step switch thing, dont take that as a free pass to just do that shit all the time. Use it sparingly and responsibly.
Like a nice boy.
