Light touch practicing huen sao? Running around?
No centerline there. It certainly is different from what we practice. I can hear GM Garrett Gee's voice echoing in my head "we live AND die on the centerline".
But people do chi sau for all sorts of reasons. I'm not a real big fan of the flowey flowery stuff. It is more towards this kind of thing:

IMO without centerline structure there is no ability to intercept force. It is all "loi lau" and no "hoi sung", because the softness is crashed by the force beyond the boundaries of its own structure. I don't think it will hold up to sparring level forces.
I do realize the Luk sao Ip Man platform has some more centerline structure.
Anyway there's your wish - some discussion on KFO - lol.
