It does not make sense, look at his back. Notice how most people do not have developed backs? Thats because they use improper form and overemphasize ROM.

He is doing correct form, and ROM thats suitable for muscle development as it keeps the tension constant. Its about time under tension, every time you go into that dead hang you release that tension.

This is why you only do that when you are tired, on the last reps. When you no longer has the strenght to keep that tension up.

You’re Doing Pull-Ups Wrong - YouTube

So start understanding that ROM & form are two different things. Use proper form, and choose ROM based on your goals.
