VJ went on to say that in his new impact he is now "on top of the ball, not behind it." and "Since my approach angle is so much better, my move through the hitting zone is devoid of compensations like leaning back or letting go of the club with my right hand (although you’ll still see me do that from time to time).

Not vice versa.
Remember, the Ballis where the Ball is. Except on the tee or when afforded relief, you cannot change it. Similarly, youare where you are.

On the other hand, if you choose to locate the Ball in front of or behind your Centered Head, then your Head will be either 'behind' the Ball or 'in front' of it. Bottom line: Let your Centered Head Position dictate relative Ball Location, and ignore the cliche "stay behind the ball".
Yes, as explained, there is a casual relationship between the Head and the Ball. But, the key is not to keep the "Head behind the ball." Instead, through Impact, the real key is to . . .
