The nipple line as you are calling it is "The Yin line"

As the nipples define the borders of Yin and between the Yin line to the shoulders represents the Yang area.

The two vertical lines are the Yin lines, that pass through the nipple, the area between these two lines represent the one Yin gate, from the head down to the toes.

The Yang lines are the vertial lines of the shoulders, the Yang lines and Yin lines are creating two outside gates, from nipple to shoulder.

Keeping the elbow fixed, is the "Imovable elbow principle"

The Pak Sao with energy moving horizontally or sideways from the opponent, violates the forward energy principle; with your minimal version, keeps it in the maximum efficiency principle of Wing Chun.

Doing the Pak Sao while moving in to the opponent should make it a deflection and not a block; as Wing Chun aviods blocking more in favor of parries and reflections.

In your description of Pak Sao, it could also be a palm strike to the side of the opponent's head, in clinch type situation standing or on the ground.

Having said all that, with my version of the dos and don'ts of Wing Chun, I'm in total agreement with your explanations.

Once again Thanx for sharing.

The Yin/Yang vertical lines, and the three dantiens making up the Nine Wing Chun gates; #similar to the game of X's and O's.

Important for the principle to be able to attack/control the opponent's nine gates and simultaneously protect as many of one's own.

This Black Flag Wing Chun tutorial video explains the gates.
