Brilliant analysis! You've clearly identified the "elephant in the room"! This is a perspective that is ignored far too often as we push ourselves (often dangerously) into certain asanas.
The realm of the chair...my first yoga teacher was a great fan of the squat, a full body exercise and some people are elegant doing it too...like James says, we get good at what we practice
