No, I am using it in a different sense.
My contribution is I gave physical combat examples (rather than internal) where opponents can "no longer move their body freely" and timing—whether he agrees or not.

I don't understand this reply. I think Oily dragon was talking about the interpretation of "Double Weighted"
Every sweep, throw, and roll in grappling works on a circular concept. Hence the wheel metaphor of Tai Chi.
In striking catching people while in transition may be similar to what is being described as "double weighted" but it has nothing to do with being weighted and more to do with being committed to a movement to the extent that for a short period of time nothing can be done. For example. Kicking under the lead jab. Once that lead jab is committed you are unable to do anything until the jab stops. The more committed a jab is the less the person can avoid the kick under.
Looks like I have a better understanding as you explain it. I just delete my comment about Jow Ga circular movement and how it uses the follow up punch to deal with that issue. I deleted itas you were typing your message, because I felt that it was telling too much which is rare for me to feel like that. I guess because talking how to do a technique is different than talking about how do defeat it.
Sweep feet one while pushing upper body the other way. Is like turning a wheel. Depending on the perspective of the wheel and the direction of the turn, the top moves right the bottom moves left. The sides are similar. The right side moves down while the left side moves up.
No, I am not "moving the definition around." In every definition of "double weight" there is a common denominator, the inability to change. That is the definition I used. However, the difference may be how the practitioner and opponent get there. The term "double weight" has been attributed to Wang Zong Yue and his "Taijiquan Treatise."
I know, I acknowledged that, accept it and I thanked both you and Tony for giving details on your meeting. What doesn't change is your opponent's weight shifts.
Not only did I talk, I posted video clips (including the Choy Lay Fut video) of people being hit or swept, when they're double weighted.
The common denominator in all 3 of our definitions is the inability to change.
So every time someone gets hit, it's because the are doubled Weighted? And it's impossible to hit people who aren't doubled Weighted? This is how my brain is processing that statement.
Yes, they are unable to change (e.g., out of position). So, they get hit.
It's impossible to hit someone that changes, before getting hit.
(Oh, I missed this post.) No, it does. Again, it has to do with where an opponent's weight is and timing. I explained the difference in control and timing in yours and KFW's, parrying the lead hand when opponent's weight is on the front foot, then attacking—2 actions vs others attacking before that with 1 action. (I can go back to examples and explain further.)
Transitions are weight shifts. I can't think of a transition that doesn't require a weight shift.
There is a difference in weight transitions between...
Diakiese's opponent's majority of weight has not transferred to the front foot, allowing him to get KOd.
