Judo throw technique

In terms of your standard hip throw and shoulder throw, I've always been taught to throw from a fully aligned posture - as in feet parallel, hips and shoulders square. That also seems to be the case in most videos I've seen.



But then I stumbled across this video (and others in this channel) that talk about the "power leg" - generating power by pushing off the back leg. And in this video he throws from a twisted, almost coiled up position, and seems to generate power by "uncoiling". Is this more effective than throwing from a squared up posture?
